The Christmas Song

(M.Torme-R.Wells)



Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

And 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 ev'ry mother's 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

Altho' it's been said many times, many ways;

"Merry Christmas to you"



Instrumental
