(Torme/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 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:
|
Although it's been said many times, many ways, "Merry Christmas to you."
