Our Winter Wonderland SING-A-LONG
It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you "Be of good cheer"
It's the most wonderful time of the year
There'll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There'll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories of
Christmases long, long ago
It's the most wonderful time
It's the most wonderful time
It's the most wonderful time of the year
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!!
When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And my dear we're still goodbyeing
But as long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Sleigh bells ring—are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening—
a beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland!
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is the new bird
He sings a love song as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland!
In the meadow we can build a snowman—
then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say: "Are you married?" We'll say: "No man!"
But you can do the job when you're in town!
When it snows, ain't it thrilling,
Though your nose gets a chilling?
We'll frolic and play, the MICHIGAN way
Walking in a winter wonderland!
