Singing carols, stringing popcorn
Making footprints in the snow
Mem'ries, Christmas mem'ries
They're the sweetest ones I know

Who now have children of their own
Funny, but comes December
And I remember every Christmas I've known
Shiny faces, all the children
From all the Christmases I've ever known
