Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Merry Christmas, baby

You sure did treat me nice

Merry Christmas, baby

You sure did treat me nice

You gave me a diamond ring for Christmas

Now I'm living in paradise

[Verse 2]

Well, I'm feeling mighty fine

Got good music on my radio

Well, I'm feeling mighty fine

Got good music on my radio

Well, I wanna kiss you, baby

While you're standing 'neath the mistletoe

[Verse 3]

Santa came down the chimney

About a half past three

He left all these presents

That you see before me

I said merry Christmas, baby

You sure been good to me

[Verse 4]

I haven't had a toddy this morning

But I'm all lit up like a Christmas tree, yeah

[Verse 5]

Well, I'm feeling mighty fine

Got good music on my radio

Well, I'm feeling mighty fine

Got good music on my radio

Oh well, I want to kiss you, baby

While you're standing 'neath the mistletoe

[Verse 6]

Santa came down the chimney

About a half past three

He left all these presents

That you see before me

[Verse 7]

I said merry Christmas, oh, pretty baby

Sure been good to me

I haven't had a drink this morning

But I'm all lit up like a Christmas tree, yeah

Merry Christmas, baby

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
