I like to hear that music, the music of today And do the latest dances in a crazy way But when it comes to Christmas I put away the new And celebrate the holiday the way I used to do Let's have an old fashioned Christmas an old fashioned Christmas Hang the stockings on the fireplace put the presents ‘neath the tree Just like an old fashioned Christmas an old fashioned Christmas Get together all the family just like it used to be Now I can take the city and the sandy shores Where there's always sunshine now who could ask for more But when I think of Christmas and the fallen snow To the fun filled mountains is where I want to go Well winter and it's magic are upon us once again Bringing all those memories of fun times way back when Well I am not a dreamer but I really have to say They really don't make Christmases like the ones of yesterday Let's have an old fashioned Christmas an old fashioned Christmas Hang the stockings on the fireplace put the presents ‘neath the tree Just like an old fashioned Christmas an old fashioned Christmas Get together all the family just like it used to be Let's have an old fashioned Christmas an old fashioned Christmas Hang the stockings on the fireplace put the presents ‘neath the tree Just like an old fashioned Christmas an old fashioned Christmas Get together all the family just like it used to be
