MERRY CHRISTMAS, ALABAMA (NEVER FAR FROM HOME)
(Jimmy Buffett / Matt Bettton)
Jimmy Buffet - 1996

 
Merry Christmas, Alabama 
Merry Christmas, Tennessee 
Merry Christmas, Louisiana 
To St. Barth's and the Florida Keys 

Merry Christmas, Mississippi 
Where I started thes wild and crazy run 
Such a long way from that first birthday 
Merry Christmas, Everyone 

And Merry Christmas, Colorado 
Though far from you all I have roamed 
"Tis the season to remember 
All the faces and the places that were home 

"Tis the season to remember 
And to count up all the ports of call I've known 
And to thank his mercies tender 
For I'm never far from home 

Merry Christmas to my saints and guardian angels 
Who protect me as I roam 
All the faces and the places that were home 

Guess my life's moved at near light speed 
Since I started this wild and crazy run 
Such a long way from that first birthday 
Merry Christmas, Everyone 

"Tis the season to remember 
That we're never far from home 

Merry Christmas, Everyone
