+====== The Christmas Song (Chestnuts) ======
+==== Lyrics ====
+Chestnuts roasting on an open fire\\
+Jack Frost nipping at your nose\\
+Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir\\
+And folks dressed up like Eskimos
+Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe\\
+Help to make the season bright\\
+Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow\\
+Will find it hard to sleep tonight
+They know that Santa’s on his way\\
+He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh\\
+And every mother’s child is gonna spy\\
+To see if reindeer really know how to fly
+And so I’m offering this simple phrase\\
+To kids from one to ninety-two\\
+Although it’s been said many times, many ways\\
+Merry Christmas to you
+**Text & Music:** Bob Wells and Mel Tormé\\
+Famously Sung By Nat King Cole
