I'm Dreaming of a Black Christmas

I’m Dreaming of a Black Christmas

(by George Matrician, Coaldale High Music Teacher)

I’m dreaming of a black Christmas

Just like the ones I used to know

Where the coal banks glisten

And children listen

To hear colliery whistles blow.

Toot, toot, toot, toot.

I’m dreaming of a black Christmas

With every Christmas card I write

May your days be merry and bright

And may all your coal be anthracite.
