《Christmas Dinner》歌词

[00:00:00] Christmas Dinner - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保罗与玛丽三重唱)

[00:00:09] And it came to pass on a christmas evening

[00:00:14] While all the doors were shuttered tight

[00:00:19] Outside standing a lonely boy-child

[00:00:23] Cold and shivering in the night

[00:00:33] On the street every window

[00:00:37] Save but one was gleaming bright

[00:00:42] And to this window walked the boy-child

[00:00:47] Peeking in saw candlelight

[00:00:56] Through other windows he had looked at turkeys

[00:01:00] And ducks and geese and cherry pies

[00:01:05] But through this window saw a gray-haired lady

[00:01:09] Table bare and tears in her eyes

[00:01:18] Into his coat reached the boy-child

[00:01:23] Knowing well there was little there

[00:01:27] He took from his pocket his own christmas dinner

[00:01:32] A bit of cheese some bread to share

[00:01:41] His outstretched hands held the food and they trembled

[00:01:46] As the door it opened wide

[00:01:50] Said he would you share with me christmas dinner

[00:01:55] And gently said she come inside

[00:02:03] The gray-haired lady brought forth to the table

[00:02:09] Some glasses to their last drop of wine

[00:02:12] Said she here's a toast to everyone's christmas

[00:02:18] And especially yours and mine

[00:02:26] And it came to pass on that christmas evening

[00:02:31] While all the doors were shuttered tight

[00:02:35] That in that town the happiest christmas

[00:02:41] Was shared by candlelight
