The Holiday Spirit

Christmas comes along

Just one time a year

We’re so happy it’s come

Gifts and Christmas trees

Gath’ring families

Feasting and having fun

Wreaths and colored lights

Gleaming gaily, let’s let

The holiday shine

Let’s all get the Christmas spirit

And we’ll have a real good time

Lalala la

Lalala la la la ..................

Hanukah comes along

Just one time a year

We’re so happy it’s here, now

Presents and menorahs, help

Tell the great story how

We need never give in

To fear now

Tops called dreidls

And latkes on the table, let’s let

The holiday shine

Let’s all get the Hanukah spirit

And we’ll have a real good time

Lalala la

Lalala la la la ..................

Kwanzaa comes along

Just one time a year

We’re so happy it’s come

Weave a m’keka, let’s drink

From the kikumbé, zawadi

For everyone

Celebrate for seven days

Light the Kinara, let’s let

The holiday shine

Let’s all get the Kwanzaa spirit

And we’ll have a real good time

La lala la  lala la  lala la

Winter holidays

Come just once a year

We’re so happy they’re here

Christmas   or   Hanukah

Kwanzaa, we love ‘em all

They help to bring us near

To one another

Snow starts fallin’

And folks start callin’, let’s let

The holidays shine

Let’s all get the holiday spirit

Let’s all get the holiday spirit

Let’s all get the holiday spirit

And we’ll have a real good time

Lalala la

Lala la la la

La la la lala la

La la .... la la la lala lala...
