White Christmas
Words and Music by Irving Berlin

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know,
Where the treetops glisten,
And children listen,
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,
With every Christmas card I write,
May your days be merry and bright,
And may all your Christmases be white.

[Bridge]

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,
With every Christmas card I write,
May your days be merry and bright,
And may all your Christmases be white.

N.S.: During The War, Bing Crosby was the world’s most popular singer. Crosby was dubbed “der Bingle,” as a way of mocking Hitler, who was called “der Führer” (the leader) in Germany.
