Текст песни Christmas Must Be Tonight - Daryl Hall , John Oates

Going down to Bethlehem, see the little son of man
Lying away in the manger, praise the Prince of Peace
Wheels start turning, fires start burning
Shine a light on the wise men journeying from the East

How could a little baby boy, be bringing down so much joy
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
It must be Christmas, must be tonight

See the shepherds on a hillside, looking up at the sky
On a cold winter night, they hear the angel's sing
In a dream I heard a voice, said, "Fear not, come rejoice"
It's the end of the beginning, praise the newborn King

Just a little baby boy, he's bringing us so much joy
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
Oh, and it must be Christmas, must be tonight
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
It must be Christmas, must be tonight (oh, oh, and it's alright, say)

Then it came to pass, the child was born at last
Happened right before the star that shines on high

How could a little baby boy, be bringing down so much joy
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
It must be Christmas, must be tonight
Oh, son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
It must be Christmas, must be tonight

Must be tonight (it must be tonight)
It must be tonight (it must be tonight)
Christmas must be tonight (it must be tonight)
Son of a carpenter (it must be tonight)
Mary carried the light (it must be tonight)
All right (it must be tonight)
And it's all right (Mary carried the holy light)
