Christmas in July

Lyrics

Christmas in July

She's a full breath of fresh mountain air
With thick dark Italian hair.
She's a pocketful of money and a night on the town.

She's my mother's handmade wedding gown.
She's a beach vacation ocean-side,
A fireplace in the wintertime,
My Appalachian moonshine,
She's my...Christmas in July.

She's smooth skin with a hint of perfume.
She's an early morning feeling in the afternoon.
She's a crackling fire and a great read.
She's a lover and a friend in my time of need.
She's a beach vacation ocean-side,
A fireplace in the wintertime,
My Appalachian moonshine,
She's my...Christmas in July.

At Christmas, she gives me chocolate kisses...
For Valentine's she bakes a pumpkin pie...
November sees us shooting off the fireworks...
And I'm giving thanks cuz my baby's just like Christmas in July.

OOOh. She's the biggest heart--
A cross-country trip in a luxury car--
Sunday morning pancakes, toast, and ham,
An opera, a ballad, and a hip-hop jam,
A never-ending gold mine,
An exotic Hawaiian coastline,
The lovely summer morning sunshine,
Oooh-my my...
My Christmas in July.

She's 3 kids, a dog, and a summer home.
She's 50 years of feeling so young,
The best advice at just the right time--
She's always the finest glass of wine.
She's a beach vacation ocean-side,
A fireplace in the wintertime,
My Appalachian moonshine,
She's my...Christmas in July.
