Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys

William Smith Monroe (; September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) was an American mandolinist, singer, and songwriter, who created the bluegrass music genre. Because of this, he is often called the "Father of Bluegrass".The genre takes its name from his band, the Blue Grass Boys, who named their group for the bluegrass of Monroe's home state of Kentucky. He described the genre as "Scottish bagpipes and ole-time fiddlin'. It's Methodist and Holiness and Baptist. It's blues and jazz, and it has a high lonesome sound." more »

[Chorus]
Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
Christmas time's a comin'
And I know I'm goin' home

Snow flake's a-fallin'
My old heart's a callin'
Tall pine's a hummin'
Christmas Time's a comin'

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'?
Joy, don'tcha hear them singin'?
When it's snowin', I'll be goin'
Back to my country home

[Chorus]

White candle's burnin'
My old heart's a yearnin'
For the folks at home when
Christmas time's a comin'

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'?
Joy, don'tcha hear them singin'?
When it's snowin', I'll be goin'
Back to my country home

[Chorus]

Holly's in the window
Home where the wind blows
The cane foam's a runnin'
Christmas time's a comin'

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'?
Joy, don'tcha hear them singin'?
When it's snowin', I'll be goin'
Back to my country home

[Chorus: x2]
