Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

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

[Verse 2]

They know that Santa's on his way

He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh

And every mother's child is gonna spy

To see if reindeer really know how to fly

[Verse 3]

And so I'm offering this simple phrase

To kids from one to ninety-two

Although it's been said many times many ways

Merry Christmas to you

[Verse 4]

Every mother's child is going to spy

To see if reindeer really know how to fly

[Verse 5]

And so I'm offering this simple phrase

To kids from one to ninety-two

Although it's been said many times many ways

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you
