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 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

Though it's been said many times, many ways

Merry Christmas to you



Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh



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

Though it's been said many times, many ways

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you
