lyrics

Christmas in jail
Christmas in jail
Had a little too much to drink.
I can't make my bail
I pee in a pail
And I'm spending New Year's Eve in the clink.

I was in the wrong lane
Feeling no pain
Zoomed my car to seventy-five
Then I ran into
You can guess who
And they said I'm lucky to be alive.

"Merry Christmas. Happy New Year."
They're singing in the street.
While everybody's having Christmas turkey
They give me bread and water to eat.

Christmas in jail
Christmas in jail
I wore my shoes out pacing the floor.
I've got rocks in my head
I wish I was dead
Ain't gonna drink and drive no more!
