歌詞
[Verse 1]
And they'll lay you down low and easy
And the lips that you kiss will say Christmas
And the miles that you traveled the distance
[Verse 2]
So believe no lies
Dry your eyes
And realize
By surprise
[Verse 3]
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
[Verse 4]
And the business will shake hands and talk in numbers
And the princess will wake up from her slumber
And all the knights will step forth with their arm bands
And every stranger you meet in the street will make demands
[Verse 5]
So believe no lies
And dry your eyes
And realize
By surprise
[Verse 6]
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
[Verse 7]
And we'll send you glad tidings from New York
Open up your eyes so you may see
Ask you not to read between the lines
Hope that you will come right in on time, oh
[Verse 8]
And they'll talk to you while you're in trances
And you'll visualize not taking any chances
But meet them halfway with love, peace, and persuasion
And expect them to rise for the occasion
[Verse 9]
Don't it gratify
When you see it materialize
Right in front of your eyes
By surprise
[Verse 10]
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
[Verse 11]
And we'll send you glad tidings from New York
Open up your eyes so you may see
Ask you not to read between the lines
Hope that you will come right in on time, whoa
[Verse 12]
And they'll lay you down low and easy
