lyrics

The stockings are hung
Chestnuts on the fire
Carols being sung
By a far off church choir
And if I may I'd like to share
My one Christmas desire

I've got a list, I've checked it twice
You can be naughty, it'll be nice
And I'll come sliding down your chiminey
Babe, let's unwrap all the toys
Lots of fun for girls and boys
And I hope that you stocked up on batteries

I don't want to get out of bed on Christmas
I only want the gifts under your tree
I'll kiss you on your mistletoe
Be your holiday ho,ho,ho
And we won't leave the house 'til New Year's Eve

Let's make that little fat man jolly
I'll deck your halls with boughs of holly
Would you like to lick my candy cane?
I like the spice in your eggnog
You lit a fire in my yule log
I'm going to teach you how to play those reindeer games

I'll be your rocket on the 4th
Spend Halloween under your spell
On Easter we can make like bunnies
But nothing's quite like the Noel

So give me some of that figgy pudding
Hey sugar plum, my soldier's wooden
You can turn my blue Christmas to white
So take the reins and guide my sleigh
This is my favorite holiday
But it ain't going to be no silent night

I'll stuff your stocking
I'll jingle your bells
Let's make the most
Of this Noel
And we won't leave the house 'till New Year's Eve
