We Wish You a Merry Christmas - Peter, Paul and Mary

Once in a year, it is not thought amiss

To visit our neighbors and sing out like this

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin

We wish you a merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

We all want some figgy pudding

We all want some figgy pudding

We all want some figgy pudding

And a cup of good cheer

And we won’t go until we get some

We won’t go until we get some

We won’t go until we get some

So bring it right here

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin

We wish you a merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

A happy New Year

Once in a year, it is not thought amiss

To visit our neighbors and sing out like this

Of friendship and love, good neighbors abound

And peace and goodwill the whole year around

(Pace!) (Shanti!) (Salud!) (Shalom!)

The words mean the same, whatever your home

Why can’t we have Christmas the whole year around?

Why can’t we have Christmas the whole year around?

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

And a happy New Year
