"We Need A Little Christmas" lyrics - LEE GREENWOOD

Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before
My spirit falls again
Fill up the stocking
I may be rushing things
But deck the halls again now
For we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
Candles in the window
Carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry
But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry
So climb down the chimney
Put up the brightest string
Of lights I've ever seen
Slice up the fruitcake
It's time we hung some tinsel
On that evergreen bough
For I've grown a little leaner
Grown a little colder
Grown a little sadder
Grown a little older
And I need a little angel
Sitting on my shoulder
Need a little Christmas now
Haul out the holly
Well, once I taught you all
To live each living day
Fill up the stocking
But Auntie Man
It's one week from
Thanksgiving Day now
But we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
Candles in the window
Carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute
It hasn't snowed a single flurry
But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry
So climb down the chimney
Put up the brightest string
Of lights I've ever seen
Slice up the fruitcake
It's time we hung some tinsel
On that evergreen bough
For we need a little music
Need a little laughter
Need a little singing
Ringing through the rafter
And we need a little snappy
'Happy ever after'
Need a little Christmas now
Need a little Christmas now
