Lyrics to It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev’rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five and ten
glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev’ry store
But the prettiest sight to see
is the holly that will be
On your own front door.

A pair of hopalong boots
and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben;
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen;
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait
for school to start again.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev’rywhere you go;
There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel,
one in the park as well,
The sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas;
Soon the bells will start,
And the thing that will make them ring
is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev’ry store
But the prettiest sight to see
is the holly that will be
On your own front door.
Sure it’s Christmas, once more!
