Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You look so nice in that ugly sweater
So full of holiday cheer
You traveled through all that ice and snow
Just to make it to my front porch
Here I'll take your bags and put 'em in the attic
'Cause that's where we all sleep
I hope you're ready for a rare tradition
You're in for a real big treat
[Chorus]
Merry Christmas
Come meet my cousins
Aunts and uncles, neighbors and friends
That's my brother he's quite the talker
Meet my mother with the jolly sweet grin
Try the cookies dipped in the chocolate
Grab a seat and come sit by the tree
Merry Christmas, sure glad to have you
Welcome to the family, oh
[PostChorus]
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
[Verse 2]
You smell the fire
We're about to roast some chestnuts
Just like they do in the song
That little bar there in the corner
Uncle Dave pours the eggnog strong
I hope you packed your old church clothes
'Cause tonight's Christmas Eve
We'll light some candles, sing "Silent Night"
Open presents and fall asleep
[Chorus]
Merry Christmas
Come meet my cousins
Aunts and uncles, neighbors and friends
That's my brother he's quite the talker
Meet my mother with the jolly sweet grin
Try the cookies dipped in the chocolate
Grab a seat and come sit by the tree
Merry Christmas, sure glad to have you
Welcome to the family
[PostChorus]
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
[Bridge]
Here we go, uh, woo
We'll wake up laughing to my Grandma snoring
With wrapping paper scattered on the floor
Start making plans to come again next year
But hold on for a second while I got you here
[Chorus]
Merry Christmas
Come meet my cousins
Aunts and uncles, neighbors and friends
That's my brother he's quite the talker
Meet my mother with the jolly sweet grin
Try the cookies dipped in the chocolate
Grab a seat and come sit by the tree
Merry Christmas, sure glad to have you
Welcome to the family
[PostChorus]
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la (It's like it's falling from the sky)
La-la-la-la-la (Look at my beautiful family)
La-la-la-la-la
(Hey, I want to hear you sing it with me) La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la (Woo)
La-la-la-la-la (Aunt Margo, come over here, take a break from baking those cookies)
La-la-la-la (Everybody, in a circle, back and forth, put your arms around each other, here we go, hey)
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la (Ah, yeah)
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la (Make your self at home)
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
