A Johnny Ace Christmas Lyrics

It's Christmas Eve, people

But someone's got to go

It's Christmas Eve, people

But someone's got to go

I never thought he'd have the nerve

But that just shows you what I know

He had a sweet and lonely voice

How I wish that he had stayed

He had a sweet and lonely voice

How I wish that he had stayed

But the dealer dealt the cards

And the ace has done been played

He used to talk about forever

Forever and a day

But when you get down to it

Things just don't work out that way

Merry Christmas Johnny

Though you're leaving now

The anticipation's better

Than the real thing anyhow
