Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
|
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
|
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
|
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
|
|
|
Everybody knows a turkey and some
|
Mistletoe help to make the season bright
|
And tiny tots with their eyes all 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 gonna 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 (whoa oh)
|
Although it's been said many times, many ways
|
Merry Christmas to you
|
