Once in a year it is not thought amiss To visit our neighbors and sing out like this:
We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas And a happy New Year
We want some figgy pudding We want some figgy pudding We want some figgy pudding And a cup of good cheer
We won't go until we get some We won't go until we get some We won't go until we get some So bring it out here
Of friendship and love, good neighbors abound And peace and good will the whole year around Why can't we have Christmas the whole year around? Why can't we have Christmas the whole year around?
We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas And a happy New Year
We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas And a happy New Year
