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
