The Christmas Song    (BS 2316)   Johnnie Wykoff

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - ENDING



Circle left
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Left allemande, turn partner by the right
The boys star left like eskimos
Home you go, do a dosado now
Left allemande, come back and promenade
Though it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

FIGURE



Head ladies chain across the ring now
Heads square thru 4 hands in time
You meet the outsides, go right & left thru
Veer left, circulate one time
Bend that line, you slide thru and pass thru
Swing that corner gal around and promenade
Though it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

ALTERNATE LYRICS



Turkey, fixin's and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright

TAG



Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
