There are many grand traditions
Around the holidays
From pumpkin pie and eggnog
To Santa on his sleigh
But this year I don't need carols
Or men made out of snow
I've just one wish this Christmas
And that's to be a Ho Ho Ho
I wanna be a Ho Ho Ho for Christmas
Wrap me up in a bow
Open up my box; it's better than new socks
Light me up like Rudolph's nose
Try my cookies, they're delicious
And if you want to go to a show
My pulse quickens when I see Dickens
I wanna be a Ho Ho Ho
Roasted chestnuts aren't the only snack
Around the holidays
Stuff me like a turkey, frost me like a cake
Have me in so many ways
I wanna be a Ho for Christmas
Underneath the mistletoe
I've been very good
Pine is my second-favorite wood
Forget the North, show me your South Pole
Put me on your gift list
'Cause babe, just so you know
It fills me up with joy
To open a new toy
I wanna be a Ho Ho Ho
If you could grant me one wish
Then please, let it snow
'Cause I'll be merry and bright
When I'm covered in white
I wanna be a Ho Ho Ho
I wanna be a Ho Ho Ho
