Ribbons and paper cover the floor
It's been a great Christmas, with presents galore
Everyone's happy and I'm happy too
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
The night before Christmas I had with you

Frost on the window, snow on the ground
Holiday spirit, holiday sounds
Everyone's thankful and I'm thankful too
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
The night before Christmas I had with you

It all started underneath that mistletoe
While we were waiting up just to help old Santa Claus
We were making merry in ways we'd never thought of
When we heard those sleigh bells and old Santa almost caught us

We didn't take no pictures, but I still remember
One very special twenty-fourth day of December
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
The night before Christmas I had with you

It all started underneath that mistletoe
While we were waiting up just to help old Santa Claus
We were making merry in ways we'd never thought of
When we heard those sleigh bells and old Santa almost caught us

If we don't do this next year, Honey, I'm sure gonna miss it
Why don't we make it a new Yuletide tradition
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
The night before Christmas I had with you
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
Oh, what a night (Oh, what a night)
The night before Christmas I had with you

Oh, Merry Christmas, Baby, I love you so much
(What a night) Oh, what a night
(What a night) Ummm, what a night
(What a night) Oh, what a night
(What a night) The night before Christmas
(What a night) I spent it with you
(What a night) Oh, what a night
(What a night) The night before......
