The Christmas Song
[Verse 1: Bing Crosby & Ken Darby Singers]
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire (Mmm)
Jack frost nipping at your nose (Mmm)
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos
[Verse 2: Bing Crosby & Ken Darby Singers]
Everybody knows (Ooo)
A turkey and some mistletoe (Ooo)
Will help to make the season bright (Ooo)
Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
[Verse 3: Bing Crosby]
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
An' goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know
How to fly
[Verse 4: Bing Crosby & Ken Darby Singers]
And so I'm offering this simple phrase (Ooo)
To kids from one to ninety-two (Ooo)
Although it's been said
Many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you
[Whistling solo: Bing Crosby]
[Outro: Bing Crosby & Ken Darby Singers]
Although it's been said
Many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you
Ooo-ooo-ooo
