I'm driving home for Christmas, 
Oh, I can't wait to see those faces. 
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah, 
Well I'm moving down the line. 

And it's been so long, 
But I will be there; 
I sing this song 
To pass the time away 

Driving home for Christmas 
Top to toe in tailbacks. 
Oh, I caught red lights on the run, 
Get my feet on snowy ground. 

So I sing for you, 
Though you can hear me 
When I get through 
And feel you near me. 

I'm driving home for Christmas 
With a thousand memories. 
I'm driving home for Christmas, 
I look at the driver next to me; 
He's just the same.
