Everything Is Jolly

Everything is jolly As we string the walls {with lights} And frolic in the snow Everything is jolly As we deck the halls {tonight} With holly and mistletoe (Chorus) Oh, out in the snow Along the sides of our little house As the winter sun glowed I put up the lights with my spouse Then she said, "There he goes" As I climbed to the top of the tree To cut the mistletoe She gathered it and sung along with me (Chorus) Oh, out in the snow Along the sides of our little house As the noon sun glowed We trimmed the holly to make boughs Then we took some old clothes And put them on our frosty man She laughed and began to throw Balls of snow and around the yard she ran As I gave chase We fell with sweet expressions In that place Made two angel impressions Then hand in hand We kissed like happy Eskimos Then from this winter wonderland We went inside to warm our toes (Chorus) Oh, under the mistletoe Surrounded by holly in our little house As the Christmas tree glowed I sat at the table with my child and spouse With a centerpiece, a rose We thanked the Reason for the Season above For food, shelter and clothes Because better is a little than a lot without love Dedicated to Chrissy
