Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule tide carols being sung by a choir
and folks dressed up like eskimos

Everybody knows that turkey and mistletoe
Can 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 every mother's child
is gonna spy to see if reindeer
really know how to fly

So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times
many ways Merry christmas to you
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mothers child
is gonna smile to see if reindeer
really know how to fly

So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times
many ways Merry christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you

Merry Christmas
