We Need a Little Christmas
[Verse 1]
Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again
Fill up the stocking
I may be rushing things, but, deck the halls again, now
[Chorus 1]
For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
Candles in the window, carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry, but, Santa dear we're in a hurry
[Verse 2]
So, climb down the chimney
Turn on the brightest string of lights I've ever seen
Slice up the fruit cake
It's time we've hung some tinsel on the еvergreen bough
[Chorus 2]
For I've grown a little lеaner, grown a little colder
Grown a little sadder, grown a little older
And I need a little angel sitting on my shoulder
I need a little Christmas, now
[Verse 1]
Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again
Fill up the stocking
I may be rushing things, but, deck the halls again, now
[Chorus 1]
For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
Candles in the window, carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry, but, Santa dear we're in a hurry
[Verse 2]
So, climb down the chimney
Turn on the brightest string of lights I've ever seen
Slice up the fruit cake
It's time we've hung some tinsel on an evergreen bough
[Chorus 3]
For we need a little music, need a little laughter
Need a little singing ringing through the rafter
And we need a little snappy, happy ever after
We need a little Christmas, now

Oooooo...
We need a little Christmas, now
We need a little Christmas, now
