Lyrics
Christmas in America, Peace on Earth you?re keeping
Christmas in America, all the children sleeping?
It?s Christmas in America, it feels so good to me
We sing along with Christmas songs with all the family
It?s Christmas in America, the land of liberty
Sleigh bells ring and children sing from sea to shining sea
It?s Christmas in America, somehow it seems so right
The Christmas trees on Christmas Eve light up the Christmas night
It?s Christmas in America, and where I love to live
With Christmas toys for girls and boys in gifts we love to give
(Chorus)
I have traveled ?round the world at Christmas time you know
And I?ve seen happy boys and girls wherever I did go
But when I?m home at Christmas time with all the family
Then Christmas in America is Christmas time to me
(Tag)
Christmas in America, Peace on Earth you?re keeping
Christmas in America, all the children sleeping?
