Deck the halls, hang the wreath
Count the days till Christmas Eve
Waitin' on what's underneath
The tannenbaum tree
Bathe your house in twinkle lights
Beg your kids for silent nights
Wondering about what's inside
The red and the green
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's such a wonderful life we got right here
There's no present like the moment, it's all that we need
Just a little Merry Christmas and you here with me
You can jingle and bang a drum
You can para-pum-pum-pum-pum
Let it snow on a mistletoe
'Cause no one's alone
Go tell it on the mountainside
With angels we have heard on high
There's a star up in the sky
That leads you home
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's such a wonderful life we got right here
There's no present like the moment, it's all that we need
Just a little Merry Christmas and you here with me
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
And a happy new year
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
And a happy new year
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
And a happy new year
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
Yeah! It's the most...
Wonderful time of the year
It's such a wonderful life we got right here
There's no present like the moment, it's all that we need
Just a little Merry Christmas and you here with me
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
(Have a merry, merry little Christmas)
Yeah, Merry Christmas baby
You better watch out
You better not cry
I said, you better watch out
You better not cry
