Chesnuts 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 mistle toe
help make the season bright
tiny tots with their eyes all a glow
will find it hard to sleep tonight
they know that santas on his way
loaded lots of toys 
and goodies on his sleigh
every child is gonna spy
to see if a reindeer really knows how to fly
and so i'm offering this simple phrase
to kids from one to nintey two
although its been said 
many times many ways
i got a christmas wish
i got a christmas
i got a christmas
i got a christmas
wish.
