At the Christmas Ball

At the Christmas Ball - Bessie Smith/The Boyfriends

Hey Bessie it's Christmas here"

Here Here Hurray for Christmas

Christmas comes but once a year

And to me it brings good cheer

And to everyone who likes wine and beer

Happy New Year is after that

Happy I'll be that is a fact

That is why I like to hear

Folks I say that Christmas is here

Christmas bells will ring real soon

Even in the afternoon

There'll be no chimes shall ring at the Christmas Ball

Everyone must watch their step

Or they will loose their rep

Everybody full of fare at the Christmas Ball

Grab your partner one an' all

keep on dancing 'round the hall

Then there's no one to fall

Don't you dare to strut

If your partner don't act fair

Don't worry there's some more over there

Seekin' a chance everywhere at the Christmas Ball
