I thought Christmas Day would never come
But it's here at last so Mom and Dad
The waiting's finally done.
And you gotta get up,
You gotta get up,
You gotta get up,
It's Christmas morning.

Last night I heard reindeer on my roof
Well, you may think it's crazy
But I swear it is the truth.
And you gotta get up,
You gotta get up,
You gotta get up,
It's Christmas morning.

Did my sister get a baby doll;
Did my brother get his bike?
Did I get that red wagon,
The kind that makes you fly?
I hope there'll be peace on Earth
I know there's good will towards men
On account of that baby born in Bethlehem.

Mom and Daddy stayed up too late last night,
I guess they got carried away in the Christmas candlelight.
But you gotta get up,
You gotta get up,
You gotta get up.
It's Christmas morning.
You gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up...
You gotta get up.
