You don’t have to be a Christian to love Christmas,
It’s a festival for all the girls and boys;
Even Buddha, meditatin’ can hardly bear the waitin’
For jolly Santa and his bag of toys.

You don’t have to be a Christian to love Christmas,
It’s such fun to decorate the Christmas tree;
The Shinto in Japan and the kids of the Koran,
Their eyes light up when all the gifts they see.

You don’t have to be a Christian to love Christmas,
It’s a holiday for all the world to share;
The Druid and the Jain and the atheist down the lane
Are wrapping gifts for family everywhere.

You don’t have to be a Christian to love Christmas,
There’s a friendliness in everyone you meet;
The Hindu and the Wiccan can bake a sumptious chicken
And invite the Jewish family down the street!
