Light, Love & Joy (of Christmas)

THE LIGHT, LOVE & JOY (of Christmas)

(by Tom MacLear & Renee DiSisto)

WE WISH A MERRY CHRISTMAS
A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU
WE WISH A MERRY CHRISTMAS
A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU

IT’S TIME TO GREET THE SEASON
TIME TO BLESS THE REASONS FOR CHEER
THE LIGHT LOVE AND JOY OF FAMILY BRINGS US HOME EACH YEAR
THE YULE LOGS’ CRACKLIN’ BRIGHT
IN THE TELEVISION LIGHT ONCE AGAIN
AND UNCLE JOES SHOVLIN’ SNOW DOWN THE HILL, SEEMS IT NEVER ENDS

FROM THE RED SUNSETS ON THE FLORIDA KEYS
TO THE DEEP GREEN TREES OF PORTLAND MAINE
THE SOFT WHITE SNOW OF COLORADO
TO THE BRIGHT BLUE SHORES OF WAIKIKI

***CHORUS

ALBERT GETS THE SLIPPERS THAT FRED HAD GIFTED
WILBUR LAST YEAR
UNCLE MOES’ KISSIN’ LISA NEATH THE MISTLE TOE
THAT ISN’T THERE
UNCLE BILLS’ POURIN’ WHISKY IN THE EGG NOG
FEELING FRISKY AGAIN
AND A DOG WE CALL BUSTER JUST ATE THE LEMON CUSTARD AGAIN !

LISTENIN’ TO THE ROCKETT SHOWS IN NEW YORK CITY
OR THE SWEET, SWEET JAZZ FROM NEW ORLEANS
SOME COOL HOWLIN’ BLUES FROM MEMPHIS
OR THE FOOT STOMPIN’ COUNTRY-SWING OF ABELINE

***CHORUS

*****SOLO

THOSE COWBOY BOOTS FROM NEW MEXICO
OR GRANDMA’S QUILT FROM TENNEESSEE
A CA-BER-NET / FROM CALIFOR-NI-A
ALL THESE DAYS OF LOVE_ MAKE US WANNA SING…..
