Merry Christmas, baby, you really did treat me nice
Bought me a hi-fi for Christmas, now I'm living in paradise
Well, I'm feelin', mighty fine, I got good music on my radio
Well, I feel so fine, I got good music on my radio
Yes, I want to hug and kiss you baby
While you're standing beneath the mistletoe.
Left all these pretty presents that you see before me
Merry Christmas baby, you really been good to me.
I will always love you baby
Now I'm happy as I can be.
