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 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 ev'ry mother's 
Child is gonna spy to see if 
Reindeer really know how to fly 

And so, I'm offering this 
Simple phrase to kids from 
One to ninety-two 
Altho' it's been said many times 
Many ways 
Merry Christmas to you
