Tom Smith - This Ain't New Jersey lyrics

I ain't laughing I didn't hear the joke anyway I got my fingers on the windows As the snow makes this a prison Tomorrow will be Christmas day I took you drinkin' To say the things that I needed to say You drank me under the table Like you always do The radio just plays away Those same old songs Every single year We drink, we sing And I forget the things that I need to hear And we argue As the snow seals us in for the night You say 'Santa Claus is coming But I don't care what the sun says That's never gonna serve by right' And this ain't New Jersey Father Christmas is coming to town You throw your drink in my face Throw that look in my direction And the radio plays on and on Those same old songs Every single year We drink, we sing On the state we're in But it's Christmas my dear And walking with the roads As the barman grids his teeth He's praying that the storm will ease up over us Then he knows he shouldn't drive He'd be sleeping in his car That just ain't no good The floorboards of the pub Ain't just buckled with our love 'Cuz when we fight, I love you more Like your favorite film It's A Wonderful Life You've seen it a hundred times But you don't get bored You don't get bored You don't get bored Eleven thirty Christmas 'eve turning into Christmas day I ask you how you're feeling You answer "I'm aging" I remember what I need to say Like Jimmy Steward in the film that you hold so dear I may have had a bit to drink I may have done some dumb things But I'm glad the storm has trapped me here With you And walking with the roads As the barman grids his teeth He's praying that the storm will ease up over us Then he knows he shouldn't drive He'd be sleeping in his car That just ain't no good The floorboards of the pub Ain't just buckled with our love 'Cuz when we fight I love you more Like your favorite film It's A Wonderful Life You've seen it a thousand times But you don't get bored You don't get bored No, you don't get bored Still those same old songs Fill the air We drink, we sing On the state we're in Here's to another year
