where do you live? In New York all we hear during "Holiday Season" is crappy, slapped together "I wanted to make me some Christmas Money" music from marginal artists who otherwise wouldn't be caught dead singing such atrocious muck but at Christmas they act like it's expected of them. Come to think of it, this song is absolutely one of the most beautiful Christmas Song of all time, right up there in the Top 10!!!! Jim was one of the greats, God Bless him AND his family.!
Lyrics: Snowy nights and Christmas lights Icy windowpanes Make me wish that we could be Together again And the windy winter avenues Just don’t seem the same And the Christmas carols sound like blues But the choir is not to blame But it doesn’t have to be that way What we had should never have ended I’ll be dropping by today We could easily get it together tonight It’s only right Crowded stores, the corner Santa Claus Tinseled afternoons And the sidewalk bands play their songs Slightly out of tune On the windy winter avenues There walks a lonely man And if I told you who he is Well I think you’d understand But it doesn’t have to be that way What we had should never have ended I’ll be dropping by today We could easily get it together tonight It’s only right Oh, it doesn’t have to be that way What we had should never have ended I’ll be dropping by today We could easily get it together tonight It’s only right
"I'll be dropping by today"....surely, the words of a stalker! I know Jim Croce didn't mean it to be that creepy....only joking. What an amazing song, we miss you SO MUCH, you'll live forever in our hearts and your music will also live forever.
I wish this song would appear on the radio during the holidays
I remember in the 70s our radio station would play a tribute day to him on the anniversary of his death every year.
He was one of the uncharted greats ... sure miss him
A very good christmas song
God I love this song.
I love Croce!! Amazing songwriter. Thanks Dad!
Such a warm song.
Grrat Song by a very talented singer and song Writer ! Died at only 3O yrs of Age😢

This song is for my house mate Jerry because he calls me Jim like the name of the singer of this song
Lyrics:
Snowy nights and Christmas lights
Icy windowpanes
Make me wish that we could be
Together again
And the windy winter avenues
Just don’t seem the same
And the Christmas carols sound like blues
But the choir is not to blame
But it doesn’t have to be that way
What we had should never have ended
I’ll be dropping by today
We could easily get it together tonight
It’s only right
Crowded stores, the corner Santa Claus
Tinseled afternoons
And the sidewalk bands play their songs
Slightly out of tune
On the windy winter avenues
There walks a lonely man
And if I told you who he is
Well I think you’d understand
But it doesn’t have to be that way
What we had should never have ended
I’ll be dropping by today
We could easily get it together tonight
It’s only right
Oh, it doesn’t have to be that way
What we had should never have ended
I’ll be dropping by today
We could easily get it together tonight
It’s only right
i love the songs
Best love song
Fuiste un genio Jim. Me has acompañado toda mi vida
