Christmas in the Air

Mary  E. Coe
Ring, ring, ring
Ding, ding, ding
Ha! ha! ha! Ho!, ho! ho!
Ring, ring, ding, ding
Ha, ha, ho, ho
It's Christmas time
Christmas is in the air;

Everywhere, bells are ringing
Everyday, children's singing
Bells are ringing
Children's singing
Ring, ring, ding, ding
Ha, ha, ho, ho
It's time again
Christmas is in the air

East and west and south
and even north
Children's faces, how
they're glowing
All because they are knowing
It's Christmas time
Christmas is in the air

Bobby and Susie's
hanging up the mistletoe
Jack and Jane
are peeking out the window
hoping for some snow

Mama's out doing a lot of shopping
Daddy's money gone pop, pop, popping
And his bill fold is flatter than
It's ever been this year
It's time again
Christmas is in the air

Grandma in the mirror
Combing her silver, white, hair
Grandpa in the rocker
Staring at grandma
Remembering the good old years

Joey in bed, tossing and turning
All because, he is wondering
Will Santa Claus know tonight
That he'd been good all year
It's time again
Christmas is in the air.

Ring, ring, ring
Bells are ringing
Ding, ding, ding
Children's singing
Bells are ringing
Children's singing
Ring, ring, ding, ding
Ha, ha, ho, ho
It's Christmas time
Christmas is in the air.
