| From early in November to the last week of December | |
| I got money matters weighing me down | |
| Oh the music may be merry, but it's only temporary | |
| I know Santa Claus is coming to town | |
| In the days I work my day job, in the nights I work my night | |
| But it all comes down to working man's pay | |
| Getting ready, I'm getting ready, ready for Christmas Day | |
| Getting ready for Christmas Day | |
| And let me tell you, namely, the undertaker, he's getting ready for your body | |
| Not only that, the jailer he's getting ready for you | |
| Christmas day. Hmm? And not only the jailer, but the lawyer, the police force | |
| Now getting ready for Christmas day, and I want you to bear it in mind | |
| I got a nephew in Iraq, it's his third time back | |
| But it's ending up the way it began | |
| With the luck of a beginner he'll be eating turkey dinner | |
| On some mountain top in Pakistan | |
| Getting ready, oh we're getting ready | |
| For the power and the glory and the story of the Christmas day | |
| Getting ready, for Christmas day. | |
| Done made it up in your mind that I'm going, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago. | |
| I'm going, on a trip, getting ready, for Christmas day. | |
| But when Christmas come, nobody knows where you'll be. | |
| You might ask me. | |
| I may be layin' in some lonesome grave, getting ready, for Christmas day | |
| Getting ready oh we're getting ready | |
| For the power and the glory and the story of the Christmas day | |
| Yes we're getting ready | |
| Getting ready, ready for your prayers, | |
| I'm going and see my relatives in a distant land. | |
| Getting ready, getting ready for Christmas day | |
| If I could tell my Mom and Dad that the things we never had | |
| Never mattered we were always okay | |
| Getting ready, oh ready for Christmas day | |
| Ready, getting ready | |
| For the power and the glory and the story of the Christmas day |
