it's the most wonderful time of the year

with the kids jingle belling and

everyone telling you be of good cheer

it's the most wonderful time of the year

it's the hap happiest season of all

with those holiday greetings and gay

happy meetings when friends come to call

it's the hap happiest season of all

there'll be parties for hosting

marshallows for toasting

and caroling out in the snow

there'll be scary ghost stories

and tales of the glories

of christmases long long ago

it's the most wonderful time of the year

there'll be much mistletoeing

and hearts will be glowing

when loved ones are near

it's the most wonderful time of the year

there'll be parties for hosting

marshmallows for toasting

and caroling out in the snow

there'll be scary ghost stories

and tales of the glories

of christmases long long ago

it's the most wonderful time of the year

there'll be much mistletoeing

and hearts will be glowing

when loved ones are near

it's the most wonderful time

yes the most wonderful time

oh the most wonderful time

of the year
