What’s That Sound? Songtext
von JD McPherson

What′s that sound at the door I hear?
I heard that same pretty sound last year
Neighbors are caroling around the town
Trying to spread a little bit of joy around
I hear that sound, it makes me feel so fine
Sounds a little bit like Christmas time

What's that sound in the street I hear?
I heard that same mighty sound last year
Parade drummers marching out two-by-two
Rocking out the holiday boogaloo
What′s that sound?
It sounds like Christmas time

If you listen closely now, you'll hear it in the air
That's the sound of Christmas cheer I hear it everywhere


What′s that sound in the town I hear?
I heard that same busy sound last year
Shoppers are hoppin′ and humming a tune
Happy Holidays! and How do you do?
What's that sound?
It sounds like Christmas time

If you listen closely now, you′ll hear it in the air
That's the sound of Christmas cheer I hear it everywhere
What′s that sound on the roof I hear?
I heard that same pitter-pat last year
Jingling bells and big black boots
A rattling chimney and thirty-two hooves
I hear that sound and I feel so fine
Sounds a little bit like Christmas time

What's that sound down the road I hear?
I heard that same ringing bell last year
Ringing that thing like he′s leading a band
Trying to give a neighbor a helping hand

What's that sound?
It sounds like Christmas time
What's that sound?
It sounds like Christmas time
What′s that sound?
It sounds like Christmas time
