I thought Christmas day would never come
But it's here at last so mom and dad
The waiting's finally done
And you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
It's Christmas morning
Last night I heard reindeers on my roof
Well you may think I'm exaggerating but I swear I'm tellin' you the truth
And you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
It's Christmas morning
Refrain:
Did my sister get a baby doll, did my brother get his bike?
Did I get that red wagon, the kind that makes you fly
Oh I hope there'll be peace on earth, I know there's good will toward men
s
On account of the Baby born in Bethlehem

Mom and daddy stayed up too late last night
I guess they got carried away in the Christmas candlelight
But you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
It's Christmas morning
And you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
