(Mel Torme & R. Wells)
|
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
|
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
|
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
|
|
They know that Santa's on his way
|
He's bringing 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 wish
|
To kids from one to ninety-two
|
Although it's been said many times, many ways
|
Merry Christmas to you
