Christmas Swinging

Some say it's country all the way
Others say that ballads make you sway
There's folks who insist it's the choirs
That's what the holiday requires, but not I
I don't get the festive spirit
Until the moment that I hear it
The cool jazz vibing from the grooves
That make me crave those yuletide moves
That Christmas song of Nat King Cole
As much as it can warm my soul
It doesn't get my blood to flow
As that "Cool Yule" from Satchmo, oh no
And Bing can sing of a Christmas white
But it won't make my feet take flight
I want to dance like Fred Astaire
Steal away the girl without a care
So take a pause from nonstop shopping
It's time to do some Lindy hopping
I'm not a big fan of carol singing
I've fallen in love with Christmas swinging
Sinatra, Buble, Krall and Ella
Gets every girl to grab her fella
If you don't know what makes you hep
Just do the rock step and a triple step
Now I do admit that I take stock
When I hear that Jingle, the Jingle bell rock
And every station plays Mariah's tune
"All I want for Christmas is You", oh no
But how can you resist the songs of Frank, he sung so swell
Or his rat pack pal, his buddy old Dino
Singing let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
So take a pause from nonstop shopping
It's time to do some Lindy hopping
I'm not a big fan of carol singing
I've fallen in love with Christmas swinging
Sinatra, Buble, Krall and Ella
Gets every girl to grab her fella
If you don't know what makes you hep
Just do the rock step and a triple step
