We never kiss under the mistletoe
That's the way that she let me know
I should have listened when she said
That she was leaving with the man in red
When I look under the Christmas tree
None of the presents are wrapped for me
I'm so ashamed I just hang my head
I know she's leaving with the man in red
All the shining Christmas lights
Seem so joyful tonight
You should've seen my face
When I found her stockings by the fireplace
There'll be no dinner, no holiday
All because my baby went away
She made me feel just like I was dead
The night she left me for the man in red
There'll be no caroling tonight
No hot chocolate by the fireside
Things like puzzles and toys
Are only meant for little girls and boys
For me there's only my loneliness
All I can say is that I tried my best
Can't understand what went through her head
When she left me for the man in red
I should have listened when she said
That she was leaving with the man in red
