It's "Ain't no Stopping Us Now" by McFadden and Whitehead
Please e-mail them to me, or let me know where to find them. It was a
popular song around 1980, and won a Grammy award in 1980.

Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas
On that yolly holiday
I'll go in the red like a knucklehead
'Cause I'l squander all my pay
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas
Shopping sure drives me berserk;
On the day before I'll rush in a store
Like a poor, bewildered yerk.
I'll look at nightgowns for my wife
Those black ones trimmed in red;
But I won't know her size and so
She'll get a carpet sweeper instead
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas
As each kid hangs up his sock;
It's a time for kids to flip their lids
While their poppa goes in hock
(SPOKEN)
On the night before Christmas,
"It's" still in the house;
My family is sleeping
So I'm quiet like a mouse.
I look at my watch,
and midnight is near;
I think I'll sneak out
For a cold glass of beer.
Down at the corner
The crowd is so merry;
I end up drinking about 12 Tom and Yerry
I get to bed late,
and yee, yes how I'm sleeping
When on to my bed
those darn kids they come leaping
They sit on my face
And they yump on my belly
And I'm quivering all over
Like a bowl full of yelly.
They scream "Merry Christmas!"
And my poor wife and me;
We stumble downstairs
And she lights up the tree.
My head is exploding,
My mouth tastes like a pickle;
I step on a skate
and fall on a tricycle.
Just before Christmas dinner,
I relax to a point;
Then relatives start swarming
All over the yoint.
On Christmas, I hung and I kiss my wife's mother
The rest of the year we don't speak to each other
After dinner my aunt and my wife's uncle Louie
Get into an argument, they're both awful screwy.
Then all my wife's family say Louie is right,
And my goofy relations, they yoin in the fight.
Back in the corner
The radio's playing
And over the racket Gabirel Heater is saying
"Peace on earth everybody!
Good well toward men!"
And just at that moment
Someone slugs Uncle Ben
They all run outside whooping,
So the neighbors will hear;
Oh I'm so glad Merry Christmas
Comes yust once a year
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas
But I still have lots of fun;
Yust the same as you, I enjoy it too,
Merry Christmas everyone!
Hope I didn't get this to you too late! Have fun at your show!!!
Happy Holidays,
Dave from New Jersey
