Loretta Lynn
"Happy Birthday" lyrics

Happy Birthday

Well, I know where you're going
And who's gonna meet you there
I know how late you'll be coming home
But guess who doesn't care?

Tonight I'll step out too
And since I won't be here
Happy Birthday
Merry Christmas
And happy New Year

My best wishes may be early
But I'm not sticking around
To bake a cake for your Birthday
While you're out running around

She can help you celebrate
May she bring you lots of cheer
Happy Birthday
Merry Christmas
And happy New Year

Now I've made my mind up
Late second's long enough
You think I don't mean it
So you're gonna call my bluff

But I'll be busy packing
While you're holding her near
Happy Birthday
Merry Christmas
And happy New Year

My best wishes may be early
But I'm not sticking around
To bake a cake for your Birthday
While you're out running around

She can help you celebrate
May she bring you lots of cheer
Happy Birthday
Merry Christmas
And happy New Year

Happy Birthday
Merry Christmas
And happy, happy New Year
