Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire

 

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
and folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
to kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways,
Merry Christmas to you


Also known as “The Christmas Song”, this classic carol has been performed by just about everyone in the world of entertainment - whether they can sing or not.

But there is one cover of Chestnuts On An Open Fire that surpasses them all — and this is it.
