lyrics

Christmas Eve at The Railway Hotel but there wasn't any cheer
Just a few old men and the smell of smoke and beer
Nobody had mentioned Jesus but to take his name in vain
The bells heard in the distance was just the passin trains

The barmaid Jules was callin last drinks eager to get home to her kids
The old men were getting restless shufflin in their seats
Cause outside it was raining and inside it was dry
But there ain't no room at the inn tonight

The last round of the night it was ordered and Jules charged it to the house
She wished them merry Christmas as she gently shooed them out
Some headed for the carriage works some for Cleveland Road
To sleep and dream of myhre frankincense and gold

As Christmas morning it was breaking across the railway lines
The bells of Saint Andrews could be heard to chime
Church choirs were singin about the birth of a King
But for the old men of The Railway Hotel it didn't mean a thing
