Country music duo Dan + Shay have just released their brand-new holiday song “Take Me Home For Christmas”! “This is our first original Christmas song, and we had a blast writing and recording it,” Dan Smyers shared. “It was cool to get in the holiday spirit a little early this year, because I think we could all use some extra positivity and cheer. Our fans have asked for Christmas music every year, so I hope you all have as much fun listening to it as we did making it.”

“Take Me Home For Christmas” Lyrics
Baby, when December comes
When it’s gettin’ cold outside
And your bags are packed
I don’t wanna say goodbye
When I see the trees light up
When they hang the mistletoe
And I’m by the fire
I don’t wanna be alone
Baby, won’t you take me home for Christmas
Show me ’round your town
Take me where you used to watch the snow come down
Honor your traditions
I wanna know ’em all
You’ll check every box off of my list
If you take me home for Christmas
Take me home, yeah
Take me home
Take me home
I wanna spend the night before
Drinkin’ with your high school friends
‘Round the neighborhood
We can do a little caroling
Watchin’ Santa fly
Across a Christmas moon
Don’t need gifts this year
If I got you
Baby, won’t you take me home for Christmas
Show me ’round your town
Take me where you used to watch the snow come down
Honor your traditions
I wanna know ’em all
You’ll check every box off of my list
If you take me home for Christmas
Wanna be by your side
When you open your eyes
And say, “Baby, it’s Christmas”
Yes, I do
Baby, won’t you take me home for Christmas
Show me ’round your town
Take me where you used to watch the snow come down (Snow come down)
Honor your traditions (La-da-da-da-da)
I wanna know ’em all (Let me see, I wanna know ’em all)
You’ll check every box off of my list
If you take me home for Christmas (Home for Christmas)
Take me home (Oh, yeah, babe)
Take me home (Take me home)
Take me home (Hey!)
(Take me home)
(Take me home)
(Take me home)
(Take me home)
(Take me home)
(Take me home)
Oh, won’t you take me home for Christmas?
