[Verse 1]
Momma, don't make me wear that old thing again
Hand-knitted Christmas trees and a silly snowman
No matter if I refuse
I got them ugly sweater blues

[Verse 2]
Momma, why can't you see I feel like a fool?
Green elves with snowflakes and scratchy alpaca wool
Maybe you heard the news:
I got them ugly sweater blues

[Chorus 1]
Another year
Another sweater
And another holiday soirée
Momma hears the people laughin'
While the presents are unwrappin'
And she's not even sorry

[Verse 3]
Momma, don't make me wear that old thing again
Bright red with sleigh bells and a gingerbread man
Corduroys and pointed shoes
I've got the ugly sweater blues
[Chorus 2]
Drivin' to Atlanta
For an interview with Santa
I can hear him say
"Hey, that kid is back again
"Dig that ugly cardigan
Oh, what a shame"

[Verse 1]
Momma, don't make me wear that old thing again
Hand-knitted Christmas trees and a silly snowman
No matter if I refuse
I got them ugly sweater blues

[Outro]
I done paid all my dues
I'm singin' these ugly sweater blues
