Christmas wishes passed around
Wounded soldiers hunker down
We check on one of our guys
The surgeons removed his eye
Soldiers post with frozen feet
Midnight Mass is just the treat
The warmth goes right thru our skin
Homesickness quickly sets in
Let's not talk about the war
It's Christmas Day 1944
Mortars knock us on our backs
Medics dying from attacks
The trench gets hit by a shell
Our troops are screaming like hell
Let's not talk about the war
It's Christmas Day 1944
Let's not talk about the war
It's Christmas Day 1944
