Ricky Nelson - The Christmas Song lyrics

rate me

(Mel Torme)

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.

They know that Santa's on his way

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

And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy to see

If reindeer really know how to fly.

And so, I'm offering this simple phrase

To kids from one to ninety-two

Altho' it's been said many times many ways

"Merry Christmas to you..."
