Snow on the treetop The sun concealing The air is tender A winter feeling We'll take the quickest train To New York City To see the store displays Right off of Fifth No need to contemplate The year we're leaving behind Or all its weight Now is the season For Christmas time I hear a drummer boy And the kids all play beside a red bouquet From the sidewalk You hear a carol That says to put on your best apparel This is the holiday The Grinch loves mocking Don't let him put his coal Into your stocking Cause it's Christmas time A little drummer boy will come out to play Beside a red bouquet Then come Christmas day We're by the fireplace And the air it tastes A lot like gingerbread
