A Marshmallow World

Dean Martin · My Kind Of Christmas (2011 Version) [2011]

(Carl Sigman - Peter DeRose)



It's a marshmallow world in the winter

When the snow comes to cover the ground

It's time for play it's a whipped cream day

I wait for it the whole year around.



Those marshmallow clouds being friendly

In the arms of the ever-green-trees

And the sun is red like a pumpkin had

It's shining so your nose won't freeze.



Oh, the world is your snowball see how it grows

That's how it goes whenever it snows

The world is your snowball just for a song

Get up and roll it along.



Oh, it's a yum yummy world made for sweethearts

Take a walk with your favorite girl

It's a sugar date what if spring is late

In winter it's a marshmallow world.



(It's a marshmallow world in the winter)

When the snow comes to cover the ground)

It's time for play it's a whipped cream day

I wait for it the whole year around.



(Those marshmallow clouds being friendly)

In the arms of the ever-green-trees)

And the sun is red like a pumpkin had

It's shining so your nose won't freeze.



Oh, the world is your snowball see how it grows

That's how it goes whenever it snows

The world is your snowball just for a song

Get up and roll it along.



It's a yum yummy world made for sweethearts

Take a walk with your favorite girl

It's a sugar date what if spring is late

In winter it's a marshmallow world...
