|
Haul out the holly; |
|
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again. |
|
Fill up the stocking, |
|
I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now. |
|
For we need a little Christmas |
|
Right this very minute, |
|
Candles in the window, |
|
Carols at the spinet. |
|
Yes, we need a little Christmas |
|
Right this very minute. |
|
It hasn't snowed a single flurry, |
|
But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry; |
|
So climb down the chimney; |
|
Put up the brightest string of lights I've ever seen. |
|
Slice up the fruitcake; |
|
It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough. |
|
For I've grown a little leaner, |
|
Grown a little colder, |
|
Grown a little sadder, |
|
Grown a little older, |
|
And I need a little angel |
|
Sitting on my shoulder, |
|
Need a little Christmas now. |
|
Haul out the holly; |
|
Well, once I taught you all to live each living day. |
|
Fill up the stocking, |
|
Young Patrick: |
|
But Auntie Man, it's one week from Thanksgiving Day now. |
|
But we need a little Christmas |
|
Right this very minute, |
|
Candles in the window, |
|
Carols at the spinet. |
|
Yes, we need a little Christmas |
|
Right this very minute. |
|
It hasn't snowed a single flurry, |
|
But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry; |
|
So climb down the chimney; |
|
Put up the brightest string of lights I've ever seen. |
|
Slice up the fruitcake; |
|
It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough. |
|
For we need a little music, |
|
Need a little laughter, |
|
Need a little singing |
|
Ringing through the rafter, |
|
And we need a little snappy |
|
Need a little Christmas now. |
|
Need a little Christmas now. |
