The Christmas Song

(Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)



Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nippin' 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 sigh

Do reindeer really know how to fly?



And so I'm offering this simple phrase

To kids from one through ninety-two,

Although it's been said many times many ways,

Merry Christmas to you.
