The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire) Songtext
von Diamond Rio

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Will help to make the season bright
And tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa is 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


And so I′m offering this simple phrase
To kids from 1 to 92
Though it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

They know that Santa is on his way, he's on his way
He′s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother′s child is going to spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from 1 to 92
Although it′s been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, yeah, merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas to you

Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
