Lyrics

Diamonds Into Coal
Copyright©2023 Mark D. Mooney

December snow covers the ground
Santa's about to come around
Careful what you wish for, you just might get it
If you send it out ,karma brings it back
So don't you wish for nothin' bad
I'm telling you friend, you'll regret it

CHORUS
Everything's better than you think, so don't complain
When someone's having a parade, don't make it rain
If you let your bad thoughts take control
You'll turn diamonds into coal

Go ahead and take a bottle of wine
to a man whose yard has a different sign
It's Christmas y'all, let's behave
When you see a guy drive like a jerk
Go ahead and let him merge
And don't honk the horn if he doesn't wave
Just tap the brakes and avoid the rage

CHORUS

When you're putting presents under the tree
Get another one for a friend in need
There's too much taking, let's be givers
If your lover's shoulder is turning cold
Find her under the mistletoe
Kiss her right, and make her shiver

CHORUS
