Sadly, this song is a lifeline to those struggling with years of hard times at Christmas. There are many definitions of ‘home.’ For those who desperately need this song, the title of the original will forever be a threat.
All those drunken Christmases
All those years of pain
We can put behiind us now
Not visit them, again
You and I are grown now
We can find a way
To keep those drunken Christmases
From killing us, today!
