Lyrics Merle Haggard – Grandma’s Homemade Christmas Card

The family once received a homemade Christmas card
And everyone was thrilled to read the verse inside
‘Cause every line was perfect like the way it should be
And grandma’s name was neatly signed with pride

It simply read, «My prayers and thoughts are with you
And all my Christmas wishes are for real
And I’m just good enough at poetry to make it rhyme
And to also let you know the way I feel»

Grandma’s homemade Christmas card from long ago
Hangs proudly in the tree top with the tinsel snow
It’s the only card that we keep from year to year
Yep, grandma’s homemade Christmas card is always here
