The Christmas List

(album: Christmas Carousel - 1960)

Let me see, I'll make a list
Of the presents I have missed
Uncle Joe and Danny too
Oh and you
Wonder what I'll get for you
It must be very special too
And the moon's too big, you see
To hang it on the Christmas tree

Oh, we have so much to do
Christmas shopping, wrapping too
And we'll have a lovely tree
Wait and see
It will shine and glow with light
All gayly colored, what a sight
And we must have mistletoe
Must have a Christmas kiss, you know

Do you have candy?
Mmhm
And cookies too?
Mmhm
And nuts to crack?
Mmhm
You got gum to chew?
Yes
Will you leave something for the reindeer?
Mmhm
And something for Santa Claus too?
Oh yes
Guess you've done it all up right
Well no, not quite

Do you know a girl or boy
Who's without a Christmas toy
We could make their Christmas bright
Yes, that's right
Watch their faces, they will glow
It's really Christmas then, you'll know
If you give them love, you'll see
You'll dance around your Christmas tree
We'll dance around the Christmas tree
