 Little sister brought her new boyfriend

 We didn't know what to think of him

Until he sang, Feliz Navidad, Feliz Navidad

[Chorus (1)]

D
 Carve the Turkey, turn the ball game on
C
 Mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone

 Send somebody to the Quickpak store

 We need some ice and an extension cord

 A can of bean dip and some Diet Rites

 A box of tampons and some Marlboro Lights

 Hallelujah, everybody say, Cheese

---------------------
G                         C
 Fran and Rita drove from Harlingen
G                         C
 I can't remember how I'm kin to them
G              D                Em
 But when they tried to plug their motor home in
     C                        D
They blew our Christmas lights
G                       C
 Cousin David knew just what went wrong
G                        C
 So we all waited out on our front lawn
G             D            Em
 He threw the breaker and the lights came on
       C          D                G
And we sang Silent Night, O Silent Night



[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
D
 Carve the turkey, turn the ball game on
C
 Make Bloody Mary's 'cause we all want one
D
 Send somebody to the Stop 'N Go
C
 We need some celery and a can of fake snow
D
 A bag of lemons and some Diet Sprites
C
 A box of tampons and some Salem Lights
G     D        Em
 Hallelujah, everybody say Cheese
C                         D   G C
 Merry Christmas from the Family
