[Verse]
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose, yeah
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed like Eskimos
Oh, everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Helps to make the season bright (Make the season bright)
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two (One to ninety-two)
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

[Pre-Chorus]
Santa's on his way
Ooh, 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

[Chorus]
I'm offering this simple phrase, ooh
To kids from one to ninety-two (One to ninety-two), ooh
Though it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you
