The Christmas Song
|
|
|
All through the year
|
|
We've waited
|
|
Waited through spring and fall
|
|
To hear silver bells ringing
|
|
See winter time bringing
|
|
The happiest season of all
|
|
|
|
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
|
|
Jackfrost nippin' at your nose
|
|
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
|
|
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
|
|
|
|
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
|
|
Will help to make the season bright
|
|
Tiny tots with their eyes of a glow
|
|
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
|
|
|
|
(*) They know that Santa's on his way
|
|
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
|
|
And every mother's child is going to spy
|
|
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
|
|
|
|
(**) And so I'm offering this simple phrase
|
|
To kids from one to ninety-two
|
|
Although it's been said many times,
|
|
Many ways
|
|
Merry Christmas to you
|
|
|
|
Repeat (*)
|
|
|
|
Repeat (**)
