Nat King Cole and John Legend Lyrics

Nat King Cole and John Legend - The Christmas Song

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 (everyone knows)
A turkey and some mistletoe
(Help to) Help to make the season bright (oh)
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way (he's bringing presents)
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child (every child is gonna spy) is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

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

Oh, oh

And so I'm offering this simple phrase (I offer you this phrase)
To kids from one to ninety-two (to every child at heart, all those)
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas) to you

Merry Christmas
