Over the River and Through the Woods Songtext
von The Chipmunks

Are you ready? Ready!
Set? Set!
Ready, set, and here we go!
Over the river and through the woods
To Grandfather′s house we go
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
Through white and drifted snow
Over the river and through the woods
Oh, how the wind does blow
It stings the toes and bites the nose
As over the ground we go

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Hark! The bells are ringing
Hear the children singing
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Gather all your friends around and wish them well


Over the river and through the woods
To have a first-rate play
Oh, hear the bells ring-ting-aling-ling
Hurrah for Christmas day!
Wait a minute Alvin, I'm supposed to do the...
Over the river and through the woods
Try past my apple... my dapple...
Spring over the ground like a hunting hound
For this is Christmas day!
Sing!

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Hark! The bells are ringing
Hear the children singing
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Gather all your friends around and wish them well

Over the river and through the woods
And straight through the barnyard gate
We seem to go extremely slow
It is so hard to wait
Over the river and through the woods
Now Grandmother′s cat I spied
Hurrah for the fun is the pudding done
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie

Over the river and through the woods
To Grandfather's house we go!
