Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Yuletidecarols 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 mothers child is gonna spy

To see if reindeers 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 times

Merry christmas to you
