I. Sing, Hey, when the time rolls round this way, / And the bells peal out, _'Tis Christmas Day_; / The world is better then by half, / For joy, for joy; / In a little while you will see it laugh -- / For a song's to sing and a glass to quaff, / My boy, my boy. / So here's to the man who never says nay! -- / Sing, Hey, a song of Christmas-Day!
II. Sing, Ho, when roofs are white with snow, / And homes are hung with mistletoe; / Old Earth is not half bad, I wis -- / What cheer! what cheer! / How it ever seemed sad the wonder is -- / With a gift to give and a girl to kiss, / My dear, my dear. / So here's to the girl who never says no! / Sing, Ho, a song of the mistletoe!
