It Must Be Getting Close To Christmas
Composer(s): C. Bruce; Sammy Cahn; Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Glen Campbell



When daughter starts to greet you with her warmest grin
And junior's got his room much neater than a pin
And if they fight to hug you each time you walk in
It must be getting close to Christmas

Suddenly your slightest wish is their command
And all at once your favorite things are close at hand
And suddenly Lombardo is their favorite band
It must be getting close to Christmas

Nobody ever makes mention of the weather or season
But you, you just love that attention whatever the reason

All at once the wife is charcoal broiling stakes
Coming up with dishes she'd refuse to make
And your little puppy doesn't bark till you're awake
This paradise is close to sublime
And very close to Christmas time
