For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute, Candles in the window, carols at the spinet

Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute. -It hasn’t snowed a single flurry, - Oh, Santa, dear, we’re in a hurry! Climb down the chimney, Hang up the brightest string of – lights I’ve ever seen; Slice up the fruit cake, It’s time we hung some tinsel – on that evergreen bough….

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go; Take a look in the five and ten, glistening once again, With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, Toys in every store. But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be on your own front door!

() A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots is the wish of Barney and Ben; () Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk is the hope of Janice and Jen; (ALL) And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go; There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park, as well, The sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow.

And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Soon the bells will start…. And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing right within your heart.

If you want to be happy in a million ways, For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home.

11. -It IS wonderful to be home for Christmas! 12. -But there have been times when well, people who love Christmas and home as much as we do …well…they’ve only been able to imagine the “ chestnuts roasting on an open fire, the smell of Mom’s roasting turkey and the friendly voices of the Christmas carolers.
