Song Lyrics

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 bringing lots of toys
And goodies in his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so, I'm offering this simple song
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you!

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 on his way)
He's bringing lots of toys
And goodies in his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so, I'm offering this simple song
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you!

To you, to you and you, and you and you
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you

Mel Torme, Robert Wells
