It's the most wonderful time of the year With the kids jingle belling and everyone telling you be of good cheer It's the most wonderful time of the year It's the hap-happiest season of all With those hearty greetings and gay happy meetings when friends come to call It's the hap-happiest season of all All of the world could be seen Those silent nights you and me Were the most wonderful time of the year It's the most wonderful time of the year There was much mistletoe and hearts were glowing when loved ones were near It's the most wonderful time of the year All of the world could be seen Those silent nights you and me Were the most wonderful time of the year There were parties for roasting marshmallows for toasting and caroling out in the snow There were scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmases long, long ago It's the most wonderful time of the year It's the happiest season of all
