O Christmas Bacon and Other (Soon to Be) Caroling Classics

by porktastic on December 17, 2009

If you decide to share the Holiday spirit by going caroling this year, here are some options that will spread the joy!

O Christmas Bacon! O Christmas Bacon!
Thy pieces are so delicious;
O Christmas Bacon! O Christmas Bacon!
Thy pieces are so delicious;
I wait for you all year long and,
Even share you with St. Nick.
O Christmas Bacon! O Christmas Bacon!
Thy pieces are so delicious!

Or how about this to the tune of Winter Wonderland:

Pork chops sizzle, are you listening,
On the stove, pork is cooking
A beautiful sight,
We’re happy tonight.
Eating our Porktastic holiday meal.

Gone away is the hunger,
Here to stay is the cured ham
We tuck in our napkins,
As we go along,
Eating our Porktastic holiday meal.
