JD McPherson – All The Gifts I Need lyrics

[Verse 1]
Happiness is automatic
There's music in the air
Grab the boxes from the attic
And haul 'em down the stairs
Freezing weather's 'round the corner
And everybody knows
Soon the tree will be all lit up
Sparkling as it glows

[Chorus]
Today's anything but the same-old-thing
I can almost hear those sleigh bells ring
Singin' all those happy songs
While the little ones all dance along
Take a real quick look around and suddenly I see
It's not even Christmas yet, I got all the gifts I need

[Verse 2]
Runnin' 'round in plaid pajamas and slippers on our feet
Mama takes that photograph while we all talk through our teeth
Sugar cookies in the oven
Shaped like tiny trees
Stealing goodies by the dozen
And makin' memories

[Chorus]
Today's anything but the same-old-thing
I can almost hear those sleigh bells ring
Singin' all those happy songs
While the little ones all dance along
Take a real quick look around and suddenly I see
It's not even Christmas yet, I got all the gifts I need

[Chorus 2]
Got caught hangin' the mistletoe
Somebody stole a little kiss
I ain't tied a single bow
But I can already cross love off my list
Take a real quick look around and suddenly I see
It's not even Christmas yet, I got all the gifts I need
I take a real quick look around and suddenly I see
It's not even Christmas yet, I got all the gifts I need
