And they'll lay you down low in the easy
   And the lips that you kiss will say Christmas.
   And the miles that you traveled the distance
  
   So believe no lies, dry your eyes and realize
   That surprise
   La, la, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...
   And the businessmen will shake hands and talk in numbers
   And the princess will wake up from her slumber
   Then all the knights will step forth with their arm bands
   And ev'ry stranger you meet in the street will make demands
   So believe no lies, then dry your eyes and realize
   That surprise
   La, la, la...
  
   Bridge:
   And we'll send you glad tidings from New York
   Open up your eyes sa you may see
   Ask you not to read between the lines
   Hope that you will come in right on time
   And they'll talk to you while you're in trances
   And you'll visualize not taking any chances
   But meet them halfway with love, peace and persuasion
   And expect them to rise for the occasion
   Don't it gratify when you see it materialize
   Right in front of your eyes
   That surprise
  
   And they'll lay you down low and easy
