"Christmas In The Country" lyrics

"Christmas In The Country"

Man, I sure do love this time of year
Snow starts covering up the old John Deere
Old school lights hanging off the roof
Front porch mistletoe kissing booth
Cup filled up with some feel-good Christmas cheer
'Round here

We got snowflakes falling on an old two lane
Red-bow wreaths on a window pane
Just sitting 'round the fire with the ones who love me (ones who love me)
Miles from the city and the crazy crowds
Where the pine trees grow and the world slows down
Way out here, yeah, man I sure feel lucky
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)

Upright piano in the living room
Singing 'Silent Night' just a little out of tune
Christmas Vacation on the TV screen
Wise man missing from the manger scene
Kids can't sleep 'cause Santa's coming soon, yeah real soon

We got snowflakes falling on an old two lane
Red-bow wreaths on a window pane
Just sitting 'round the fire with the ones who love me (ones who love me)
Miles from the city and the crazy crowds
Where the pine trees grow and the world slows down
Way out here, yeah, man I sure feel lucky
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)

We got a tree, goes up to the ceiling
Chop up the wood and go get the candles
Sled down the hill, we'll get the 4-wheeler
And take you back up to the top
You could be 10 miles away
And see my house from the road
Man, we got it all decked out
Lord, I can't wait to go home

And see snowflakes falling on an old two lane
Front-yard Santa with a reindeer sleigh
Just sitting 'round the fire with the ones who love me (ones who love me)
Miles from the city and the crazy crowds
Where the pine trees grow and the world slows down
Way out here, yeah, man I sure feel lucky
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)
Doing Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)
Christmas in the country (Do-do, do-do, do-do)

"Christmas In The Country" is the first holiday songs recorded by Thomas Rhett. It was released on the 20th of November 2019. The singer/songwriter posted its audio fragment with an animated cover art of it on Instagram upon the release, and wrote there, "We start celebrating Christmas early around here. Hope y'all do too. 'Christmas In The Country,' an original and 'The Christmas Song' available everywhere now at link in bio."
Thomas Rhett explained, "We have so many Christmas traditions in our family that include a lot of festive music, but I've never recorded anything myself. Lauren has wanted me to make some Christmas music for a long time, so this year felt like the right time to finally take a stab at writing something and to put my own twist on one of the all-time classics."
Lauren Akins, Thomas Rhett's wife, asked him to write a Christmas song. He told People about it, "My wife's been on me to record a Christmas album or EP for a long time. And so we went in the studio and I recorded a classic and then I wrote an original."
