The Christmas Song

[Verse 1: Robert Lamm]
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

[Verse 2: Robert Lamm]
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

[Verse 3: Robert Lamm]
They know that Santa's on his way
(Santa's on his way)
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh (Lots of toys)
And every mother's child is gonna spy
(Mother's child)
To see if reindeer (To see if reindeer) really know how to fly-y-y

[Verse 4: Robert Lamm] (Bandmates)
So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two oh
Although it's been said many times many ways (Although it's been said many times many ways)
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Merry Christmas (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
To you!
Merry Christmas
Yeah
