Working at Christmas

We’re gonna miss them at Christmas

They won’t be here for the fun

They’ll be working at Christmas

Cos they got a job that must be done

Doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers

Postmen, firemen, airplane pilots

Singers ‘n’ dancers, the folks on tv

And then there’s Ma stuffing the turkey

They’re all working at Christmas

Doing what has to be done

Working hard at Christmas

God bless them everyone

They don’t want to leave the party

Just when the fun has begun

To make sure Christmas is covered

So here’s to them from us at home

Soldiers, sailors, lighthouse keepers

Santa’s mates the chimney sweepers

Police lookin out for you and for me

And then there’s Ma stuffing the turkey

They’re all working at Christmas

Doing what has to be done

Working hard at Christmas

God bless them everyone

And all the heroes living right next door

Are doing everything they can and more

To make a Christmas dream come true for me and you

Ooooh ooooh!

Lifeboat crews and taxi drivers

Clergy folks who seek to guide us

Chefs and waiters, the maitre d’

And then there’s Ma stuffing the turkey

They’re all working at Christmas

Doing what has to be done

Working hard at Christmas

God bless them everyone

Working hard at Christmas

God bless them everyone

Guys and gals in the radio stations

Spinning those yuletide excitations

Doctors nurses, airplane pilots

Postmen, firemen, ambulance drivers

Lifeboat crews and taxi drivers

Singers and dancers, milkmen, farmers

Oooh! God bless them everyone
