We Need A Little Christmas

Haul out the holly

Put up the tree before my spirit falls again

Fill up the stocking

I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again, now

For we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute

Candles in the window

Carols at the spinet

Yes, we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute

It hasn't snowed a single flurry

But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry

So, climb down the chimney

Put up the brightest string of lights, I've ever seen

Slice up the fruit cake

It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough

For I've grown a little leaner

Grown a little colder

Grown a little sadder

Grown a little older

And I need a little angel

Sitting on my shoulder

I need a little Christmas, now

Haul out the holly

Well, once I taught you how to live each living day

Fill up the stocking

But Auntie Mame, it's one week past Thanksgiving day, now

'Cause we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute

Candles in the window

Carols at the spinet

And we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute

It hasn't snowed a single flurry

But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry

So, climb down the chimney

It's been a long time since I felt this neighborly

Slice up the fruit cake

It's time we hung some tinsel on that bayberry bough

For we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute

Candles in the window

Carols at the spinet

And we need a little Christmas

Right this very minute

We need a little Christmas now

We need a little Christmas now

We need a little Christmas now
