[Chorus]
Oh, there was no room, no room at the inn
Oh, no room, no room at the inn
When the time had fully come
For the Savior to be born
There was no room, Lordy, no room at the inn
Well, there was no room, well, no room at the inn
Yes, there was no room, no room, well, at the inn
When the time had fully come
For the Savior to be born
There was no room, Lordy, no room at the inn
[Verse 1]
Well, according to the word
There was a virgin girl
Mother of Jesus
She was a-wondering 'round that night
She was trying to find a place
For the Savior to be born
There was no room
Lordy, no room at the inn
[Verse 2]
Well, Lord, well, Lord
I know that mother was worried
She began to moan
Prayed to be delivered of her only son
She was very sad I know
Well, she had no place to go
There was no room
Lordy, no room at the inn
[Chorus]
There was no room, Lordy, no room showing up at the inn
There was no room, yes, no room, well, at the inn
When the time had fully come
For the Savior to be born
There was no room, Lordy, no room showing up at the inn
[Verse 3]
The barrel boy and the porter
The waitress and the cook
Will be witness one day in Heaven
To tell the things Mary took
She was driven away
For she had no place to stay
There was no room
Lordy, no room showing up at the inn
[Chorus]
Yeah, there was no room, yes, no room, Lordy, at the inn
Said there was no room, well, no room, well, at the inn
Oh, when the time had fully come
For the Savior to be born
There was no room, Lordy, no room, yeah, at the inn
