Warden brought a letter by the way The stamp on the corner read Happy Holidays On the back was a Merry Christmas seal Can't find nothin' merry 'bout Christmas in Huntsville Judge said God have mercy on your soul But its hard to find a God when you're layin' in the hole Lethal injection for a man I didn't kill Ain't gonna be a Merry Christmas in Huntsville At home they're wrappin' presents, drinkin' egg nog by the fire Mama's in the kitchen, puttin' in the pies But sittin' in this prison cell I feel the winter's chill Down to my last hours doing Christmas in Huntsville The parson came and sat with me a while Said a little prayer, left me with a smile The guards bring in my final meal Turkey and dressing for this Christmas in Huntsville They asked if I had anything to say As I think of the letter they brought me yesterday From the mother of the man I didn't kill I hope you burn in hell on this Christmas in Hunstville At home the kids are cryin', Daddy's prayin' by the fire Mama's in the kitchen wipin' tears of out her eyes But layin' on this gurney I don't feel the winter's chill I got my wish this Christmas, no more Christmas in Huntsville So long and Merry Christmas, my last Christmas in Huntsville
