Lyrics
It's Christmastime and time for a carol
Time to sing about the little King
To fill the bowl and roll out the barrel
Have ourselves a fling
We greet a friend or welcome a stranger
Let him sing on, cheer him on his way
And celebrate the child in the manger
Born on Christmas day
Good cheer for you and for me
With pleasure and glee to share
Oh, we're so happy to be together
On yuletide square
It looks like snow and falls like snow
Take a moment, take a look about and say
And say snowflakes fall
Merry Christmas to one and all
It's Christmastime and time for a carol
Time to sing about the little King
To fill the bowl and roll out the barrel
Have ourselves a fling
We greet a friend or welcome a stranger
Let him sing on, cheer him on his way
And celebrate the child in the manger
Born on Christmas day
Good cheer for you and for me
With pleasure and glee to share
Oh, we're so happy to be together
On yuletide square
It looks like snow and falls like snow
Take a moment, take a look about and say
And snowflakes fall
Merry Christmas to one and all
Sleep well, little children wherever you are
Tomorrow is Christmas beneath every star
Soon the snowflakes will fall and tomorrow you'll see
Every wish, one and all, waiting under the tree
Sleep well, little children, pleasant dreams through the night
Tomorrow is Christmas, all merry and bright
Soon you'll hear the bells ring, time for dreams to come true
As the world wakes you dream, merry Christmas to you
