Christmas songs: The
Holly and the Ivy
|
![]()

The
holly and the ivy
Now that they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the woods
These enchanted trees stand alone
Oh,
the shopping in the rain
And the running for the bus
The playing of the TV adverts
Imploring us fuss, fuss, fuss

The
holly tree bears a blossom
As white as a card
And with the stores staying open so late
The going won’t be so hard
Oh,
the shopping in the rain
And the running for the bus
The playing of the TV adverts
Imploring us fuss, fuss, fuss

The
Holly tree bears a berry
As red as Santa’s suit
And he’ll be visiting each of one you
If you’ve been so very good
Oh,
the shopping in the rain
And the running for the bus
The playing of the TV adverts
Imploring us fuss, fuss, fuss

The
Holly tree bears a prickle
As sharp as any tongue
So do remember that Christmastime
Is for each and everyone
Oh,
the shopping in the rain
And the running for the bus
The playing of the TV adverts
Imploring us fuss, fuss, fuss

The
holly and the ivy
Now that they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the woods
These enchanted trees stand alone
