"Christmas Blues" lyrics

"Christmas Blues"
(originally by John Popper)

It's Christmas time, pretty baby
But it's raining in my heart
Yes, it's Christmas time, pretty baby
But it's raining in my heart

You know the snow is falling down, pretty baby
Why must we be so far apart? Oh yeah

Well, now you told me last New Year's eve, baby
That we'd be together Christmas time
Well, now you told me last New Year's eve, pretty baby
That we'd be together Christmas time

Well, now it's Christmas time, little darling
Will you be here when the bells starts to chant?

What is a ship without a crew, pretty baby?
What is the morning without the dew?
What is a ship without a crew, pretty baby?
What is the morning without the dew?

Well, what's is my life, pretty baby
With another Christmas time [?] without you?
