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 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 ev'ry 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

Altho' it's been said many times

Many ways; "Merry Christmas to you
