Lyrics:

Once in a year it is not thought amiss to visit our neighbors and sing out like this:

We wish you a merry Christmas.
We wish you a merry Christmas.
We wish you a merry Christmas.
And a happy new year.

We want some figgy pudding.
We want some figgy pudding.
We want some figgy pudding.
And a cup of good cheer.

We won't go until we get some.
We won't go until we get some.
We won't go until we get some.
So bring it out here.

Of friendship and love, good neighbors abound and peace and good will the whole year around.
Why can't we have Christmas the whole year around?
Why can't we have Christmas the whole year around?

We wish you a merry Christmas.
We wish you a merry Christmas.
We wish you a merry Christmas.
And a happy new year.
