Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree
Brenda Dee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Let the Christmas Spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear voices singing, "Let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily
In a new old fashioned way
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear voices singing, "Let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily
In a new old fashioned way

65 years later, we finally get the music video š. For those who are wondering, Brenda is 78, going onto 79. Which means she was 13-14 years old when recording this song.
Sheās number one on Billboard āHot 100!ā
@HartHendrix
So she was around 14-15 when she sang this song?? That makes it even more impressive
@MadiGrace_14
