Christmas Time's A-Coming Lyrics

Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
And I know I'm goin' home

Snow flakes are fallin'
Old home's a callin'
Tall pines are hummin'
Christmas time's a comin'

Can't you hear them bell ringers ringin'
Joy, oh hear them singin'
When it's snowin' I'll be goin'
Back to my country home

Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
And I know I'm goin' home

White candles burnin'
My old heart's a yearnin'
For the folks at home when
Christmas time's a comin'

Can't you hear them bell ringers ringin'
Joy, oh, oh hear them singin'
When it's snowin' I'll be goin'
Back to my country home

Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
And I know I'm goin' home

Holly's in the window
Home where the wind blows
Can't walk for runnin'
Christmas time's a comin'

Can't you hear them bell ringers ringin'
Joy, oh, oh hear them singin'
When it's snowin' I'll be goin'
Back to my country home

Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
And I know I'm goin' home

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
