If you seek a pillow for your head
Or a fitted sheet for Christmas bed
If you see your shadows on the snow
Is it from the baby Jesus' glow?
He's going to the country

Find a tree and put in your house
Put a mistletoe upon your mother's blouse
If you see a woman dressed in black
Give her up a song and then ask for it back

We're going to the the country
We're going to the country
Your mom's going to the country
We're going to the country
The country!
