We wish you a Merry Christmas;
 We wish you a Merry Christmas; 
We wish you a Merry Christmas 
and a Happy New Year.

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin;
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year. 

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer

We won't go until we get some;
We won't go until we get some;
We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here

We wish you a Merry Christmas;

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
