about

A New Orleans Jazz Christmas Song. Written in November. Recorded Friday 12/8/17

lyrics

I know I'n calling you kind of late
And December 24th is a peculiar date
I had a funny feeling that you might be free
Why don't we get together on Christmas Eve

Your boyfriend left, you're far from home
It ain't no fun to stare at your telephone
I wrapped you up a present in case you agree
Why don't we get together on Christmas Eve

We can drink eggnog late into the night
Get real cozy by the Christmas Lights
Watch an old movie, shed a few tears
What have we been doing for all these years

All I want for Christmas is one little thing
To look into your eyes while the jingle bells ring
If old Saint Nick could hear my plea
Why don't we get together on Christmas Eve

about

Jeremy Joyce New Orleans, Louisiana

New Orleans couldn’t offer a more appropriate musical backdrop for Jeremy Joyce, whose genre-defying songs are born out of Jeremy’s macro-level interest in music history and his micro-level interest in what makes songs tick.
