[Verse 1]
Baby, when December comes
When it's gettin' cold outside
And your bags are backed
I don't wanna say goodbye
When I see the trees light up
When they hang the mistletoe
And I'm by the fire, I don't wanna be alone

[Chorus]
Baby, won't you take me home for Christmas
Show me 'round your town
Take me where you used to watch the snow come down
Honor your traditions, I wanna know 'em all
You'll check every box off of my list
If you take me home for Christmas

[Post-Chorus]
Take me home, yeah
Take me home
Take me home

[Verse 2]
I wanna spend the night before
Drinkin' with your high school friends
'Round the neighborhood
We could do a little caroling
Watchin' Santa fly 'cross a Christmas moon
Don't need gifts this year if I got you

[Chorus]
Baby, won't you take me home for Christmas
Show me 'round your town
Take me where you used to watch the snow come down
Honor your traditions, I wanna know 'em all
You'll check every box off of my list
If you take me home for Christmas

[Bridge]
Wanna be by your side
When you open your eyes and say, "Baby, it's Christmas"
Yes, I do

[Chorus]
Baby, won't you take me home for Christmas
Show me 'round your town
Take me where you used to watch the snow come down (Snow come down)
Honor your traditions (La-da-da-da-da)
I wanna know 'em all ([?])
You'll check every box off of my list
If you take me home for Christmas (Home for Christmas)

[Post-Chorus]
Take me home (Oh, yeah, babe)
Take me home (Take me home)
Take me home (Hey!)

[Outro]
Dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum, dum-dum, da-dum-da
Da-dum
Oh, oh, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-yeah
Yeah, you know it, baby
Ooh
Oh, won't you take me home for Christmas?
