[Verse 1]
The mood is right
The spirit’s up
We're here tonight
And that's enough
[Chorus]
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
[Verse 2]
The party's on
The feeling's here
That only comes
This time of year
[Chorus]
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime

The choir of children sing their song
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
We’re simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime

The word is out
About the town
To lift a glass
Oh, and don't look down
[Chorus]
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime

They practiced all year long
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding dong
