Jimmy Buffett - High Cumberland Jubilee/Comin' Down Slow lyrics

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,

Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!

The news had come out in the First World War

The bloody Red Baron was flying once more

The Allied command ignored all of its men

And called on Snoopy to do it again.

Was the night before Christmas, 40 below

When Snoopy went up in search of his foe

He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought

With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells

Ring out from the land

Asking peace of all the world

And good will to man

The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights

He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight

Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know

Or was it the bells from the village below.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells

Ringing through the land

Bringing peace to all the world

And good will to man

The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine

And forced him to land behind the enemy lines

Snoopy was certain that this was the end

When the Baron cried out, "Merry Christmas, my friend"

The Baron then offered a holiday toast

And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host

And then with a roar they were both on their way

Each knowing they'd meet on some other day.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells

Ringing through the land

Bringing peace to all the world

And good will to man
