merry christmas my baby and a very, very happy new year

Singer:james brown

if a bell could ring

and make the whole world sing

be cheerful about the rest

and always be the rest

'cause restitution is the test

so be merry with gentle care

merry christmas

my baby

and a very

very

very happy new year

if a star could gleam

and make all the jewels seem

like rocks made of gold

excuse me

people

for being so bold

but i've got blood

sweat and tears in my soul

so be merry with gentle care

merry christmas

my baby

and a very

very

very happy new year

i love the way you wiggle your hips around the christmas tree

i love the way you do those sassy mama things to me

i love someone who can be nice and gentle

and sweet and kind

so come on

make me happy this new year

if a bell could ring

and make the whole world sing

be cheerful about the rest and

always be the best

'cause restitution is the test

so be merry with gentle care

merry christmas

my baby

and a very

very

very happy new year

a very happy new year

a very happy new year

if a star could gleam

and makes all the jewels seem

like rocks made of gold

ha ha

excuse me

people for being so bold
