Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Merry Christmas, baby
Sure did treat me nice
I said, "Merry Christmas, baby"
You sure did treat me nice
Bought me a diamond ring for Christmas
And I feel like I'm in paradise, alright

Well, I'm feel mighty fine, y'all
Got my music on the radio (radio)
Said I'm feeling mighty nice y'all
Got my music on the radio (radio)
I feel like I wanna kiss you, baby
Standing underneath that mistletoe
That mistletoe, yeah

Santa came down the chimney
Half past three, y'all
And he left all them good presents for my baby
I said, "Merry Christmas, baby"
Sure did treat me nice
Ooh, sure did treat me nice
You bought me all them presents
Now I feel like I'm in paradise
Paradise, oh yeah, yeah
Yeah

(Baby, baby)

Well, Santa came down the chimney
About half past four
Left all them presents for me
Lyin' on the floor
I said, "Merry Christmas, baby"
Sure did treat me nice, yeah
Said you bought me a diamond ring for Christmas
And I feel like I'm in paradise
Oh, whoa, I feel like I'm in paradise

Merry Christmas, baby
You sure have treated me well
Oh, yeah
I said, "Merry, merry Christmas, baby"
You sure have treated me well
Sure did treat me well
Well, you bought me that Cartier watch for Christmas
And I feel I'm in paradise
I feel like I'm in paradise

Merry Christmas (mm, merry Christmas)
Merry Christmas (merry Christmas))
Happy New Year, baby
Happy New Year
May the good Lord be with ya
May the good Lord be with ya
May the good Lord be with ya, oh yeah
(Yeah, yeah) yeah, yeah
(Merry Christmas, baby)
(Merry Christmas, baby)
(Merry Christmas, baby)
(Merry Christmas, baby)




(Merry Christmas, baby)
