Old Hippie Christmas

Well it's that time of year again everybody's runnin' round
Decoratin' everything before the fat man comes to town
Meanwhile at the commune he's getting ready too
He's tye-dying T-shirt making love beads just for you
He's trimming up his favorite tree, tokin' what he grew

Well hes got the eight track blastin' incense burns by candlelight
Gene Autry's singin' "Rudolph", The Grateful Dead do "Silent Night"

And he's seen the evening news and the prospects still look dim
But solutions for the planet he knows starts right here with him
So he'll visualize this sacred night a world that ain't out on a limb

Yeah, it's and old hippie Christmas weather's cold and hearts are warm
Momma's smokes the turkey while daddy smokes the farm
It's an old hippie Christmas just full of yuletide fun
Jesus must have been a hippie peace and love to everyone

Well the kids make up their wish list Sunshine, wants the A bomb banned
Rainbow, wants to go to 'Frisco in a old Volkswagon van
An the black lights and the lava lamps are flashin' all about
And Santa in his sandals leaves us little doubt
That Christmas time is almost here it's gonna be far-out

Yeah, it's and old hippie Christmas weather's cold and hearts are warm
Momma's smokes the turkey while daddy smokes the farm
It's an old hippie Christmas just full of yuletide fun
Jesus must have been a hippie peace and love to everyone

Yeah, it's and old hippie Christmas weather's cold and hearts are warm
Momma's smokes the turkey while daddy smokes the farm
It's an old hippie Christmas just full of yuletide fun
Jesus must have been a hippie peace and love to everyone
