[Em] [C]
I'm a family man, I [Dm] wasn't born to roam, but it seems like every Christmas finds me
far from [C] my home.
I love singing my song, but [D] it gets me down to hang my stocking in [G] some hotel when the
fat man comes to town.
[F] But it's alright, it's gonna [C] be okay,
[G] cause this year I'll be home.
Cause I'm a Louisiana [C] Christmas, oh [F] mama.
I'm gonna [C] find a way, [G] your little boy's coming on home.
Cause I'm a Louisiana [C] Christmas,
[G] [C] way up in the bayou.
Though that [G] won't be slow, but my friends all invite me round for a Christmas [C] fake-up show.
I'm gonna hop on a plane, or [G] I'll use my phone, but you best believe I'll be around that street.
Christmas [C] morning comes, [F] oh it's alright, it's gonna [C] be okay, [G] your little boy's coming on home.
Cause I'm a Louisiana [C] Christmas, [F] oh, that's what you find, oh, they [C] won't trouble me.
