The Temptations – The Christmas Song lyrics
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletidecarols 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
Emm, 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 spy
To see if reindeers really know how to fly
And 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
You know, everybody knows that Santa's on his way,
With lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh.
Now, every mothers child is trying to spy,
To see if reindeers really know how to fly.
Everybody knows reindeer fly.
And, 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
Ooh
Ooh
Merry Christmas to you
Ooh
Merry Christmas to you
