(VERSE)

I SNUCK OUT LATE ON CHRISTMAS EVE

TO STARE UP AT THE MIDNIGHT SKY

MOM AND DAD WERE SOUND ASLEEP

I HAD TO SEE IF REINDEER FLY

WITH CENTRAL PARK ALL DRESSED IN WHITE

MANHATTAN'S LIKE A BIG SMALL TOWN

ROCKEFELLER'S CHRISTMAS TREE

I'D HATE TO WATCH THEM TAKE IT DOWN 

ANOTHER COLD DECEMBER IS COMING TO AN END

AND I WANT TO HEAR THE CHRISTMAS SONG AGAIN

(CHORUS)

CHESTNUTS ROASTING 

CHILDREN HOPING

CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE

(VERSE)

NOW THEY'RE PUSHIN' CHRISTMAS ON THE STREETS

DEALING TOYS AND CLOTHES AND CARS

RINGING UP THE CHRISTMAS CHEER

PUTTING JOY ON CREDIT CARDS

THE CITY SOUNDS DROWN OUT THE BELLS

I CAN'T FIND A MANGER HERE

SANTA'S WORKING AT THE MALL

WHEN DID CHRISTMAS DISAPPEAR

NOW THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON SEEMS LIKE AN OLD FORGOTTEN FRIEND

AND I WANT TO HEAR THE CHRISTMAS SONG AGAIN

(CHORUS)

CHESTNUTS ROASTING 

CHILDREN HOPING

CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE

NA NA NA NA

NA NA NA NA

NA NA NA NA NA

(BRIDGE) 

GIVE ME AN OPEN FIRE SOME CHESTNUTS

AND MY FAMILY NEAR TO ME

CHRISTMAS CAROLS SOUNDED SWEETER BACK WHEN WE BELIEVED

NOW THE MUSIC OF MY MEMORIES IS LIKE AN OLD FAMILIAR FRIEND 

AND I WANT TO HEAR THE CHRISTMAS SONG AGAIN

(CHORUS)

CHESTNUTS ROASTING 

CHILDREN HOPING

CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE

NA NA NA NA

NA NA NA NA

NA NA NA NA NA
