Lyrics The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire) (duet with John Legend) - Nat King Cole , John Legend

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 (everyone knows) a turkey and some mistletoe
(Help to make) help to make the season bright (oh, oh)
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

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

And so I'm offering this simple phrase (this simple phrase)
(To kids) to kids from one to 92 (ooh)
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas) to you

And so I'm offering this simple phrase (I offer you this phrase)
To kids from one to 92 (to every child and old, although)
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas) to you

Merry Christmas
