Last year Bob Dylan's Xmas offering, this year Paul Simon's Xmas song and it's a good 'un!

The massive can get the free download here
http://www.paulsimon.com/ or listen on Spotify.

Not a jingle bell in sight, but featuring an American Preacher from 1941. A return to form for Mr.Simon in my opinion.

"Getting Ready For Christmas Day"
© 2010 Music by Paul Simon, Words by Paul Simon and Rev. J. M. Gates

From early in November to the last week of December
I got money matters weighing me down
Oh the music may be merry, but it's only temporary
I know Santa Claus is coming to town

In the days I work my day job, in the nights I work my night
But it all comes down to working man's pay
Getting ready, I'm getting ready, ready for Christmas Day

Reverend Gates:
Getting ready for Christmas Day
And let me tell you, namely, the undertaker, he's getting ready for your body
Not only that, the jailer he's getting ready for you
Christmas day. Hmm? And not only the jailer, but the lawyer, the police force
Now getting ready for Christmas day, and I want you to bear it in mind

I got a nephew in Iraq it's his third time back
But it's ending up the way it began
With the luck of a beginner he'll be eating turkey dinner
On some mountain top in Pakistan
