Song Lyrics

The Christmas Song

album: A Cowboy's Christmas Dream (2014), track 6 of 12
author: Mel Torme & Robert Wells
publisher: Sony / ATV Music - MPL Music

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 sleeping tonight.
   BRIDGE
     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 going to 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
Although its been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you
   Bridge
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although its been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you
