Cool Yule Lyrics

[Verse]
From Coney Island to the Sunset Strip
Somebody's gonna make a happy trip
Tonight
While the moon is bright
He's gonna have a bag of crazy toys
To give the groanies of the girls and boys
So dig
Santa comes on big

[Chorus]
He'll come a-callin' when the snow's the most
When all you cats are sleepin' warm as toast
And you gonna flip when Old Saint Nick
Lays a lick on a peppermint stick
He'll come a-flyin' from a higher place
And fill the stocking by the fireplace
So you'll
Have a yule that's cool

[Verse]
Yeah, from Coney Island to the Sunset Strip
Somebody's gonna make a happy trip
Tonight
While the moon is bright
He's gonna have a bag of crazy toys
To give the groanies of the girls and boys
So dig
Santa comes on big
[Chorus]
Come a-callin' when the snow's the most
Cats are sleepin' warm as toast
And you gonna flip when the Old Saint Nick
Lays a lick on a peppermint stick
He'll come a-flyin' from the higher place
Fill the stockings by the fireplace
So you'll
Have a yule that's cool

[Outro]
Have a yule that's cool
Yeah, cool yule

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
