Music and Lyrics by Mel Torme and Robert Wells

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

Ev'rybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight They know that Santa's on his way;
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh,
And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really can fly

And so, I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Altho' it's been said many times, many ways:
"Merry Christmas to you"
