美國搖滾巨星［雪瑞兒可洛］──流行／輕爵士／聖誕曲──［The Christmas Song／聖誕之歌］

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
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santas on his way
Hes loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mothers child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so Im offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although its been said many times
Many ways, Merry Christmas to you

And so Im offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although its been said many times
Many ways, Merry Christmas to you
