The Lyrics

I often make up parody songs when I'm driving in my car. Dolly Parton's Hard Candy Christmas came on one time and I immediately started singing "John Candy Christmas." Here is my tribute to a great comedian who was gone far too soon.
“John Candy Christmas” (to the tune of “Hard Candy Christmas”)

Hey, maybe some Uncle Buck
Maybe Delirious
Maybe some Blues Brothers
Maybe some Brewster’s Millions and then Splash
On my couch I’ll crash

Maybe some Home Alone
And maybe then Speed Zone
Maybe some Great Outdoors
Maybe some reruns of SCTV
Yeah I’ll be just…

Fine and dandy
Lord it's like a John Candy Christmas
I'm hanging out with Eugene Levy
And Rick Moranis
Says he’s coming to town

Hey, maybe Who’s Harry Crumb?
And Armed and Dangerous
Maybe I’ll watch Spaceballs
Then Little Shop of Horrors until dawn
Me, I will go on…

He was Canadian
He was never too thin
He was a funny guy
He had to say goodbye far way too soon

Me, I'll be just…fine and dandy
Lord it's like a John Candy Christmas
I'm hanging out with Eugene Levy
And Rick Moranis
Says he’s coming to town

In "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles" (my fave) I'll never forget him at the terminal reading "The Canadian Mounted!" 555
