Karaoke Colorado Christmas Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Lookin' out the window of this Hollywood Hotel you'd never know that it was Christmas Eve

The billboards and the neon took the place of silver bells and the temperature is eighty-four degrees

I can hear the traffic on the crowded strip below as the palm trees poke their heads above the scene

But there's not a single reindeer and it hardly ever snows and Santa drives a Rolls Royce limousine

But all along the Rockies you can feel it in the air

From Telluride to Boulder down below

The closest thing to Heaven on this planet anywhere is a quiet Christmas mornin' in the Colorado snow

I remember Christmases when

I was just a boy

In the mornin' I would run to see the tree

And the carolers on the hillside sang their songs of Christmas joy

Well I always thought they sang them just for me

Now the sun is settin' in the California sky and I can't find the spirit anywhere

So I think it's time for me to tell

Los Angeles goodbye

I'm goin' back home to look for Christmas there

But all along the Rockies you can feel it in the air

From Telluride to Boulder down below

The closest thing to Heaven on this planet anywhere is a quiet Christmas mornin' in the Colorado snow

It's a quiet Christmas mornin' in the Colorado snow
