ABOUT THIS SONG
Waiting on his wife to make it home from a twelve hour ER shift on Christmas, one mile at a time.
LYRICS
Ham's in the oven, lights are on The tree leans left, but that's all right Good glasses waiting on the table Porch light burning through the night She's forty miles up four thirty-one Twelve-hour shift, and she just got off Been waitin' all day and coming home for Christmas Doing seventy-nine It says forty minutes It's said forty for an hour now Baby, take your time Little blue dot, little blue dot Rolling down the interstate Little blue dot, keep coming home I'll leave the porch light on and wait Let it snow, let it freeze Every mile behind you Is one less mile we've got Merry Christmas to me Here comes my little blue dot Twelve-hour shift turned into fourteen They don't let her off easy on a night like this I've worn a path across the kitchen floor From the table to the door And that little blue light on the phone Keeps getting closer than before All day she watched somebody else's monitor Somebody else's line, somebody else's light Held a whole waiting room together Told 'em all it'd be all right Twelve hours being everybody's steady That's one little light she don't have to save That one's hers, and it's pointed straight at me Little blue dot, little blue dot Turning off the interstate Little blue dot, coming 'round the lake I'll be standing at the gate Let it snow, let it freeze Let 'em keep her half the night Merry Christmas, baby I was watching your little blue dot While yours was leading you to mine Pull in slow Guntersville's asleep You're home
