mistletoe and holly

oh

by gosh

by golly

it's time for mistletoe and holly

tasty pheasants

christmas presents

countrysides covered with snow

oh

by gosh

by jingle

it's time for carols and kris kringle

overeating

merry greetings

from relatives you don't know

then comes that big night

giving the tree the trim

you'll hear voices by starlight

singing a yuletide hymn

oh

by gosh

by golly

it's time for mistletoe and holly

fancy ties an' granny's pies

an' folks stealin' a kiss or two

as they whisper

merry christmas" to you
