Lyrics
Walking down the streets of town got the winter blues,
Suddenly I see a crowd, of people passing through
A Cathedral door, they were caroling
And above I heard the church bells ring
Then I heard a choir sing,
And I knew what I must do.
I’M GETTIN’ INTO THE SWING OF CHRISTMAS,
my favorite time of year,
when snow starts fallin’ and friends come callin’
to grab a cup or two of cheer. You know…
You know I’M Jumpin’ INTO THE SWING OF CHRISTMAS,
I can’t deny it anymore.
I hear carols playing, see children swaying
by Santas in every store.
You’ve heard I know of that Frosty Joe and his run-in with that cop? Well I was driving in LA when an officer in my way threw his hand up and hollared stop all the madness and
Get Into the swing of Christmas, and when your dance is done,
Sing across the land Merry Christmas and bless everyone.
Let’s dream of snow and of mistletoe and of chestnuts that go pop, and if a scrooge is in your way who is bah humbugging your day, you put your hand up and hollar stop all the madness and…
Get Into the swing of Christmas, and when your dance is done,
Sing across the land Merry Christmas and bless everyone.
