[Verse 1] The fire’s low, the wind’s grown cold, Boots by the flame, stories retold. The night feels long, but hearts are kind, Christmas on the trail tonight. [Chorus] It’s Christmas on the trail tonight, under the stars so wide, We got coffee, fire, and stories, though home’s a thousand miles behind. The wind may howl, but we’ve got light, It’s Christmas on the trail tonight. [Verse 2] Jake reads a note from his mama dear, Says, “Keep warm, son, and have good cheer.” Tom hums a song by the fire’s glow, Thinking of someone he used to know. [Chorus] It’s Christmas on the trail tonight, under the stars so wide, We got coffee, fire, and stories, though home’s a thousand miles behind. The wind may howl, but we’ve got light, It’s Christmas on the trail tonight. [Bridge] Maybe she’s watching the same bright star, Dreaming of me, from wherever you are. The fire we share might burn apart, But it still warms the heart. [Chorus] It’s Christmas on the trail tonight, under the stars so wide, We got coffee, fire, and stories, though home’s a thousand miles behind. The wind may howl, but we’ve got light, It’s Christmas on the trail tonight. [Final Chorus] It’s Christmas on the trail tonight, no gifts, no cards, no town in sight, But the stars above still shine so bright. Out here on the range, we’re not alone — The sky’s our roof, the stars our home. [Outro] Wind in the grass, embers fade slow, Christmas on the trail… where the wild stars glow.
