It's that time of year again
To get some paper and a pen
And write your Christmas letter to St. Nick
Send it to the North Pole,
To his workshop in the snow
And he'll put his elves to workin' on it quick
Tell Santa you've been good
And done the things you should
And you're waitin' for his visit Christmas Eve
If you're in bed by nine
You will give him lots of time
To put some special toys under your tree
And he'll be takin' care of Christmas—every day
Takin' care of Christmas—in his sleigh
Takin' care of Christmas—an' doin' it right
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night
...
Johnny wants a motor scooter
Suzy wants a new computer
Billy wants a new guitar and drum machine
Daddy wants a new Corvette,
CD player, and cassette
Mommy wants a 14-carat diamond ring
Don't forget the girls and boys
Who can't afford a lot of toys
It's up to you to fill their empty plate
It's the time to share with the needy everywhere
That's the way to make a Christmas great
And we'll be takin' care of Christmas—every day
Takin' care of Christmas—every way
We'll be takin' care of Christmas—an' doin' it right
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night
Takin' care of Christmas
(Oh, yeah)
Takin' care of Christmas
(Oh)
Takin' care of Christmas
(Oh, yeah)
Takin' care of Christmas
(Oh)
Takin' care of Christmas
(Take good care)
Takin' care of Christmas
(Yeah, Christmas)
Takin' care of Christmas—we're doin' it right
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night
Takin' care of Christmas
Takin' care of Christmas
Takin' care of Christmas
Takin' care of Christmas
We'll be takin' care of Christmas—every day
Takin' care of Christmas—every way
Takin' care of Christmas
