Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Have a holly, jolly Christmas

It's the best time of the year

I don't know if there'll be snow

But have a cup of cheer

[Verse 2]

Have a holly, jolly Christmas

And when you walk down the street

Say hello to friends you know

And everyone you meet

[Verse 3]

Ho! Ho! The mistletoe

Hung where you can see

Somebody waits for you

Kiss her once for me

[Verse 4]

Have a holly, jolly Christmas

And, in case you didn't hear

Oh, by golly! Have a holly, jolly Christmas this year

[Verse 5]

(Holly, jolly, holly, jolly, oh)

Have a holly, jolly Christmas

And, in case you didn't hear

Oh, by golly! Have a holly, jolly Christmas this year
