(That makes Christmas Day)
[Verse 1]
It's so wonderful
Wonderful to see
Little children
'Round the Christmas tree
[Chorus]
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas Day (That makes Christmas Day)
[Verse 2]
Christmas
I know how you can feel
When you see happy faces of little boys and girls
With a wagon and wheel
[Chorus]
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas Day (That makes Christmas Day)
[Spoken Interlude]
You know, December 24th, when you find the little kids, runnin', scuffling, trying to get to bed, so they can wake up the next morning December 25th, just to see what Santa Claus brought them. Now a lot of you think that there is no Santa Claus, but on December 25th, when you see the happy faces of the little boys and girls, the true feeling of Christmas. There it is, Santa Claus
[Verse 3]
Christmas
Is little boy
Running up and down the street
Oh, playing with their toy
[Chorus]
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas Day, oh oh (That makes Christmas Day)
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas Day (That makes Christmas Day)
Oh, I wanna say, say it to people
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
That makes Christmas (Christmas)
Oh, that makes Christmas Day (That makes Christmas Day)
Whoa, please won't you let me say it one more time
