Haul out the holly

Put up the tree before my spirit falls again

Fill up the stocking

I may be rushing things

But deck the halls again now

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

But Santa dear we're in a hurry;

So climb down the chimney;

Put up the brightest string of lights I've ever seen

Slice up the fruitcake;

It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough

For I've grown a little leaner

Grown a little colder

Grown a little sadder

Grown a little older

And I need a little angel

Sitting on my shoulder

Need a little Christmas now

Haul out the holly;

Well once I taught you all to live each living day

Fill up the stocking

But Auntie Man

It's one week from Thanksgiving Day now

But 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

But Santa dear we're in a hurry;

So climb down the chimney;

Put up the long time string of lights

I've ever need

Slice up the fruitcake;

It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough

For we need a little music

Need a little laughter

Need a little singing

Ringing through the rafter

And we need a little Christmas

Have fun be after

Need a little Christmas now

Need a little Christmas now

Need a little Christmas now
