«Driving home for Christmas,

Oh, I can't wait to see those faces

I'm driving home for Christmas, yea,

Well I'm moving down that line

And it's been so long

But I will be there

I sing this song

To pass the time away

Driving in my car,

Driving home for Christmas

It's gonna take some time

But I'll get there

I am driving home for Christmas

Driving home for Christmas

With a thousand memories.»

Chris Rea, driving home for Christmas
