The Kelce brothers are taking over the sports world as we know it. In addition to what they do on the field, what they offer off of it is just as entertaining.

In their newest venture, could it be a holiday movie?

It appears so.

According to NBC Sports Philadelphia, on the album’s story, there was an interaction between A Philly Special Christmas and Facebook about it being in the works.

As far as the single itself with the two brothers, it managed to top the charts.

Jason and Travis Kelce’s “Fairytale of Philadelphia” was No. 1 on US iTunes as of Wednesday.

The album overall comes out on Dec. 1, and you can order it on vinyl and CD with proceeds benefitting the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and the Children’s Crisis Treatment Center.

Jason Kelce was noticing the song creeping up on the charts.

As far as the lyrics go. Oh, I got you …

It was Christmas Eve again in the drunk tank
An old man said to me, “Won’t see another one”
And then, he sang a song, “The Rare Old Mountain Dew”
I turned my face away and dreamed about you
Got on a lucky one, came in eighteen-to-one
I’ve got a feeling this year’s for me and you
So Happy Christmas, I love you, brother
I can see a better time when all our dreams come true

They’ve got cars big as bars, they’ve got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you, it’s no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broad Street was waiting for me
You were handsome, you were pretty, you’re the king of South Philly
When the band finished playing, they howled out for more
The Leathers were swinging, all the drunks, they were singing
We fought on a corner, then danced through the night

Perhaps the best line:

You dirtbag, you phony, you lousy jabroni …

It wouldn’t appear Travis’ better half Taylor Swift had a hand in the lyrics.

Ahh yes, the holiday spirit. Perhaps we’ll see them in their Hallmark best soon.
