Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Tiny tots with the eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
I really can't stay
But baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away
But, baby, it's cold outside
This evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
My mother will start to worry
Beautiful, what's your hurry
And father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry
Beautiful, please don't hurry
Maybe just a little bit more
So
Santa, baby, slip a sable under the tree for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa, baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa, cutie, there's one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa, cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling to
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling: You-who!
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up let's go, let's look at the show
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up it's grand, just holding your hand
We're gliding along with a song of a wintery fairy land
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
For kids from one to ninety two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Happy holidays to you
