johnny cash - narration v2 lyrics

[verse 1]
[johnny]
that’s a night we are celebrating at christmas time
and according to marshall grant up in flatts,north carolina
they had their own way of celebrating christmas too
marshall what did you get for christmas say when you were six years old

[marshall]
when i was six years old or there about the biggest present that i could ever remember getting
was something like a little hatchet or a french harp
i remember one year that i got a hatchet and odell got a french harp
and he wanted my hatchet and i didn’t want his french harp
but he got what he wanted and everything but there was fourteen of us
in that little house up in flatts north carolina
there was one thing that we did have and at that time of year and that was love
all of us loved one another and it was cold
always cold with the little fireplace but the room felt so warm
and it was really warm even though there was a lot of scrambling
over the gifts that we got swapping backers and forth
from all the brothers and sisters
it was really warm in flatts north carolina always on christmas

[johnny]
i think probably a lot of people might wonder as i did where is flatts north carolina

[marshall]
well i tell you flatts north carolina it’s about eighty miles from ashville
and you go through cherokee and brison city
and you get to a little place called maddy hill in north carolina

[june]
but that isn’t it!

[marshall]
no

[johnny]
then you go up the wind

[marshall]
you take a little left there at maddy hill if you’re going east
and you go up the winding stairs for fourteen miles and you round about a dozen bends
and all of a sudden, there is no sign, and if you ask anybody up there
where olson grant lives that’s main street
