All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth Lyrics
All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth
Every body stops
And stares at me
These two teeth are
Gone as you can see
I don't know just who
To blame for this catastrophe!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve
Is as plain as it can be!
All I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth,
My two front teeth,
See my two front teeth!
Gee, if I could only
Have my two front teeth,
Then I could with you
"Merry Christmas."
It seems so long since I could say,
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
If I could only whistle (thhhh)
All I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth,
My two front teeth,
See my two front teeth.
Gee, if I could only
Have my two front teeth,
Then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"
ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH

My two front teeth, my two front teeth.

Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth,
G7 C
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas.
