I wish you a merry Christmas, I wish you a merry Christmas
I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New-Year.
I want some figgy pudding, I want some figgy pudding
I want some figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer.
I won't go until I get some, I won't go until I get some,
I won't go until I get some, so bring it right here.

Once in a year it's not thought amiss
To visit our neighbours and sing out like this:
Our friendship and love, good neighbours, abound
And peace and good will the whole year around.
Pace, salude, friedmere, shalome,
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?
