Help me ID this song
I pulled it off the network at school. The file says it's Christmas Song by Robert Earl Keen, but I don't think that is right, as I've not been able to find it anywhere else. SO, I'm going to try to typoe out the lyrics as best I can. It is performed live, if tha thelps
mom got drunk and dad got drunk
at our christmas party
we were drinking champaign punch and homemade egg nog
little sister brought her new boyfriend
he was a mexican
we ddn't know what to think of him
'til he sang feliz navidad, feliiz navidad
brother ken brought his kids with him
the three from his first wife lynn
and hte two identical twins
from his second wife
of course he brought his new wife, kay
she's talks all about AA
chian smokin while the stereo plays
noel noel the first noel
carve the turkey, turn the ballgame on
mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone
send somebody to the quick pack store
we need some ice and an etension cord
we need some bean dip and some diane rice
a box of tampons some marbole lights
hallelulia everybody say cheese
merry christmas from teh family
fran and rita drove from harligen
i can't remember how i'm kin to them
but when they tried to plug their motor home in
they blew our christmas lights
cousin david knew just what went wrong
so we all waited out on our front lawn
he threw the breaker and the lights came on
and we sang salent night, oh silent night
oh holy night
carve the turkey turn the ball game on
make bloody marys cuz we ALL WANT ONE
send somebody to the stop and go
we need some celerary and a can of fake snow
a bag of lemons and some diet sprite
a box of tampons some salem lights
haleulia everybody say cheese
merry christmas from the family
OK, there is is. Anyonw know what is it?? (The scary thing is it sounds EXACTLY like my family... i guess this just proves were're a bunch of rednecks)

Jill Sobule did a version of this song a few years back. I believe it is on a WEA Christmas compilation cd. I think the cd is called "You Sleigh Me" or something like that. The video is pretty cool as well.
