Bilingual
I know the Depression's depressing
The carols are stilled
The stores aren't filled
And windows are minus their dressing
The children don't grin
The Santas are thin
And I've heard a terrible rumor
No goodwill
No cheer
But we'll get a New Deal for Christmas
This year
The snowflakes are frightened of falling
And oh, what a fix!
No peppermint sticks
And all through the land, folks are bawling
And filled with despair
'Cause cupboards are bare
But Santa's got brand-new assistants
There's nothing to fear
They're bringing a New Deal for Christmas
This year (bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong)
On, Farley and Perkins
On, Ikes and Wallace
On, Morgenthau and Cummings
Fill our pockets with dollars
On, Roper and Swanson
Get along, Cordell Hull
Get along, giddyup
Call your committee up
Build every city up
Cheer every kiddie up
Fill every stocking with laughter
We haven't got room for any more gloom
Let's ring every bell from its rafter
And chime 'cross the land
Tomorrow's at hand!
Those happy days that we were promised
Are finally here!
We're getting a new deal for Christmas (We're getting a new deal for Christmas)
We're getting a new deal for Christmas (We're getting a new deal for Christmas)
We're getting a new deal for Christmas (We're getting a new deal for Christmas)
We're getting a new deal for Christmas (We're getting a new deal for Christmas)
Christmas
This year!
