(Toby Keith)



The middle of December ain't the time to be alone

It's just too close to Christmas

And too far to go home

I ran in to a friend of a friend

Standing in checkout line

She said, Ive spent too much already

And there's gifts I just can't find

I walked her home and when she opened up her door

I'm not sure what happened then

Guess magic took it's course



Blame it on the mistletoe

'Cause what happened here nobody knows

How could something simple as a kiss

Change my holiday like this

And we held each other all night long

And we fell asleep to a Christmas song

Playin' on the radio

Blame it on the mistletoe



I woke up, she was wrappin' gifts beneath the tree

She said, I know it's early, so I thought Id let you sleep

Then she insisted I get up and take a look outside

Hey sleepyhead, it must have snowed at least a foot last night

That's when I saw it hangin' up above my head

She threw her arms around my neck

Laughin' as she said



Blame it on the mistletoe

'Cause what happened here nobody knows

How could something simple as a kiss

Change my holiday like this

And we held each other all night long

And we fell asleep to a Christmas song

Playin' on the radio

Blame it on the mistletoe
