Mary and Joseph drove into town,
   Searching for a place to stay.
   The moon was up, and his foot was down
   A miracle was on its way.
  
   They tried the hotels, the motels, the bed-and-breakfast
   Locals, but no one seemed to have any room.
  
   Better find a double room soon!
  
   Chorus:
  
   So where would Christmas be without...
   Mary and Joseph?
   Walk of the Wise?
   Laurel and holly?
   Cracker Surprise?
   Lights on the pine tree?
   And more aftershave?
   I'm not forgetting Jesus who was born on Christmas Day!
  
   They found a place with the neon lights
   TV, Pool, and Vacancies
   The man at the desk didn't hear them right
   When the two of them booked for three.
  
   They watched the TV
   And deeply, she thought about the needing
   Of the heavens to deliver this way
   And it happened on Christmas Day
   Christmas Daaaaaaaaaaaaaay..
   Christmas Daaaaaaaaaaaaaay..
  
   Chorus
  
   Mary and Joseph were so surprised
   With admirers around the crib
   There was something in their son's eyes
   They identically took one in.
  
   Like a Messiah, and a Fire
   Like the tread around a tire
   That grip all roads
   It's to bond you there.
  
   And it happened on Christmas Day!
   Christmas daaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
   Christmas daaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
  
   Chorus, "Not forgetting Jesus.."
