Lyrics

Oh, oh-oh

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight, oh

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be miles away

Here we are, as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough (bough), yeah
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now, oh-oh (ooh)

Oh, here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore (happy golden days of yore)
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together (all will be together)
If the fates allow (if the fates allow)
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough, oh, oh, oh
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Have a merry little Christmas now
Have yourself a merry little Christmas, yes
A merry little Christmas (merry little Christmas)
Yeah, yeah
Have a merry little Christmas now
