Christmas bells in the steeple
Ringing out on Christmas morn'
But where are all the people
Where has everybody gone?

They're all busy with their presents
Snug and warm behind their doors
Thinkin' no one was forgotten
Empty shelves in all the stores

Doesn't anyone remember
As they wake up Christmas morn'
The 25th day of December
Little Baby Jesus was born?

Christmas bells in the steeple
How their ringing seems to say
O come all ye faithful, get down on your knees and pray
Don't you know it's Christmas Day?
