Christmas shoppers shopping on a neon city street

Another Christmas dollar for another Christmas treat

There's satin on the pretty dolls that make the children glow

While a boy walking ragged in the cold Kentucky snow

No, they don't have Christmas in Kentucky

There's no holly on a West Virginia door

For the trees don't twinkle when you're hungry

C D G
16
And the Jingle Bells don't jingle when you're poor
17
There's lots of toys for children when then Christmas time is near
18
But the present for the miners is a stocking full of beer
19
In the dark hills of Kentucky there's one gift that may be found
20
The coal dust of forgotten days that's lying on the ground
21
No, they don't have Christmas in Kentucky
22
There's no holly on a West Virginia door
23
For the trees don't twinkle when you're hungry
24
And the Jingle Bells don't jingle when you're poor
25
Let's drink a toast to Congress and a toast to Santa Claus
26
And a toast to all the speeches that bring the loud applause
27
There's not enough to give, no, there's not enough to share
28
So let's drown the sounds of sorrow with a hearty Christmas cheer
29
No, they don't have Christmas in Kentucky
30
There's no holly on a West Virginia door
31
For the trees don't twinkle when you're hungry
32
And the Jingle Bells don't jingle when you're poor
33
Have a merry, merry Christmas and a happy new year's day
34
For now's a time of plenty, and plenty's here to stay
35
But if you knew what Christmas was, I think that you would find
36
That Christ is spending Christmas in the cold Kentucky mine
37
No, they don't have Christmas in Kentucky
38
There's no holly on a West Virginia door
39
For the trees don't twinkle when you're hungry
40
And the Jingle Bells don't jingle when you're poor
