Lyrics

Bells will be ring ing

the sad, sad news,

oh Christ what a Christ mas

to have the blues!

Please My ba by’s gone, mas,

please I have no friends mas;

to wish me greet ings

once a gain.

Choirs will be sing ing

the “Si lent Night,”

oh Christ what mas car ols

by can dle light.

Please come home for Christ mas,

please come home for Christ mas;

if not for greet ings

once a gain.

Choirs will be Christ mas,

by New Year’s night.

Friends and re la tions

send sal u ta tions

sure

as the stars shine a bove.

For this is Christ mas,

yes, Christ mas, my dear.

It’s the time of year

to be with the one you love.

So won’t you tell me

you’ll nev er more roam,

Christ mas and New Year

will find you at home.

There’ll be no more sor row

no grief and pain

and I’ll be hap py, hap py once

a gain.

Friends and re la tions

sure

as the stars shine a bove.

For this is Christ mas,

yes, Christ mas, my dear.

It’s the time of year

to be with the one you love.

So won’t you tell me

you’ll nev er more roam,

Christ mas and New Year

will find you at home.

There’ll be no more sor row

no grief and pain

and I’ll be hap py, hap py once

a gain.

Friends and re gain.
