I'll be home with bells on.
Trim the tree and wrap the presents.
Turn the Christmas music on.
This Christmas, I'll be home with bells on.

I've traveled around this country,
Crossed the waters deep and wide.
Made lots of friends and memories,
Brought joy to other's lives.
It's Christmas time again;
Another year has come and gone.
And I can't keep from wonderin',
How the old folks are at home.

So I'll be home with bells on,
I'll be home with bells on.
Trim the tree and wrap the presents.
Turn the Christmas music on.
This Christmas, I'll be home with bells on.
***

When the snow is on the meadow,
And the sleigh bells jingle bright.
And the kids are singing jingle bells,
Around the Christmas lights.
As daddy stokes the fire,
And mamma puts the turkey on.
There ain't nothing going to slow me down,
This Christmas I'll be home.

Yeah, I'll be home with bells on.
I'll be home with bells on.
Trim the tree and wrap the presents.
Turn the Christmas music on.
This Christmas I'll be home with bells on.

Yeah, I'll be home with bells on.
I'll be home with bells on.
Trim the tree and wrap the presents.
Turn the Christmas music on.
This Christmas I'll be home with bells on.
