  • We wish you a Merry Christmas,
    We wish you a Merry Christmas,
    We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
    Good tidings we bring to you and your kin;
    Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.

    Oh, bring us a figgy pudding,
    Oh, bring us a figgy pudding,
    Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer. Refrain

    We won't go until we get some,
    We won't go until we get some,
    We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here. Refrain

    We wish you a Merry Christmas,
    We wish you a Merry Christmas,
    We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Lyrics from a song in Public Domain
