Charlie's Bar

There will be snow on the highway tonight
It's gonna be hard to keep them steers alive
Besides the cold, I don't know what's so
Special 'bout tonight...
It's just one more December 25

They call it Christmas in Milwaukee
They call it Yuletide in Oyster Bay
But right here in Charlie's Bar we don't give it a name
'Cos in Charlie's it is Christmas every day

And through the glow of my whiskey glass I see
Fairy lights and tinsel round the tree
But that child in the manger's a stranger to me
My sweet Lord ain't as sweet as bourbon tastes to me

They call it Christmas in Milwaukee
They call it Yuletide in Oyster Bay
But right here in Charlie's Bar we don't give it a name
'Cos in Charlie's it is Christmas every day

And if you're tired of life, Charlie's is the place
Where you can wipe that frown away
