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 (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

And so I'm offering this simple phrase, yeah
To kids from 1 to 92
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

Merry Christmas
Merry, merry Christmas

Yeah, yeah, yeah
So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from 1 to 92
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you (oh, merry Christmas)

Ooh, yeah
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year (Merry Christmas and a happy New Year)
Merry Christmas to you
Ooh, ooh
