LYRICS
It was the only place open on Christmas night
So I swung in to try and kill some time
Figured I’d be the only guy in that place
Til he looked up and I saw his face
With rosy red cheeks and a big ole belly
It shook when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly
I couldn’t believe what my eyes were seein’
He just smiled at me and said ‘Tis The Season
I saw Santa in a honky tonk
He was kickin it back under the red neon
Drinking long neck Shiners labeled Holiday Cheer
In his big black boots and long white beard
He tipped the band to lay off jingle bell rock
Said he only wants to hear some old Hank songs
You can say I was drunk
But I know I ain’t wrong
Cause I saw Santa in a honky tonk
He was loosening up from a full days’ haul
Said it’s the most work he’s done all year long
It’s his last stop before he heads back home
Says he’s only ever here about an hour or so
He shook my hand, said I could call him Kris
Told me my name had made it on the nice list
I know it all sounds just a little bit crazy
And this is where my story gets a little hazy
I saw Santa in a honky tonk
We were dancing on the bar under the red neon
He bought me and him a shot of Winter Jack
He said ho ho ho as we threw it on back
He tipped the band to lay off jingle bell rock
Said he only wants to hear some old Haggard songs
I was a little bit drunk
But I know I ain’t wrong
Cause I saw Santa in a honky tonk… Awwwww yea
I saw Santa in a honky tonk
We were drinking and dancing til the lights came on
He put on his hat and picked up my tab
Said the North Poles calling and it’s time to get back
I heard him shout as he drove out of sight
Merry Christmas y’all, to all a good night
I know i was drunk
But I know I ain’t wrong
Cause I saw Santa in a honky tonk
Yea I saw Santa in a honky tonk
