[Verse 1]
I said, baby, are you crazy, I know it's Christmas
But we can't be spending our money like this
She said, just sit a minute, I'll tell you something
About my Christmas memories
[Verse 2]
I'm not complaining, just saying we had no money
And that Christmas was difficult on my family
And I remember December full of tension back then
I'm not going to feel that again
[Chorus]
Good memories are what we need when we're old
To have and to hold when we feel the load
My gift forever to this family
Will be great Christmas memories
[Verse 3]
Our children will never know what it's likе
To hear their parents fight about monеy at night
And by giving these children these great memories
They give great memories to me
[Chorus]
Good memories are what we need when we're old
To have and to hold when we feel the load
My gift forever to this family
Will be great Christmas memories
[Verse 4]
So quit whining, quit crying, quit running your mouth
About credit cards, landlords, and low bank accounts
'Cause nothing that you can say will ever keep me
From making great Christmas memories
[Chorus]
Good memories are what we need when we're old
To have and to hold when we feel the load
My gift forever to this family
Will be great Christmas memories
Great Christmas memories
I said, baby, are you crazy, I know it's Christmas
But we can't be spending our money like this
She said, just sit a minute, I'll tell you something
About my Christmas memories
[Verse 2]
I'm not complaining, just saying we had no money
And that Christmas was difficult on my family
And I remember December full of tension back then
I'm not going to feel that again
[Chorus]
Good memories are what we need when we're old
To have and to hold when we feel the load
My gift forever to this family
Will be great Christmas memories
[Verse 3]
Our children will never know what it's likе
To hear their parents fight about monеy at night
And by giving these children these great memories
They give great memories to me
[Chorus]
Good memories are what we need when we're old
To have and to hold when we feel the load
My gift forever to this family
Will be great Christmas memories
[Verse 4]
So quit whining, quit crying, quit running your mouth
About credit cards, landlords, and low bank accounts
'Cause nothing that you can say will ever keep me
From making great Christmas memories
[Chorus]
Good memories are what we need when we're old
To have and to hold when we feel the load
My gift forever to this family
Will be great Christmas memories
Great Christmas memories
