One minute to midnight
One minute to go
One minute to say good-bye
Before we say hello
Happy holiday, happy holiday
While the merry bells keep ringing
May your every wish come true
Ev’ry time
I see a puppy upon a summer’s day
A puppy dog at play
My heart is filled with envy
That’s because
My heart is yearning to pass the time away
Like that pup
’cause I’m all fed up
And tho’ it’s wrong to be
I long to be
I could dance nightly
Just holding you tightly, my sweet
I could keep right on
Because you’re so light on your feet
You’re easy to dance with
Here she comes, down the street
My, oh my, ain’t she sweet?
Why, here comes my hot toddy
Over my dead body

Call me irresponsible
Call me unreliable
Throw in undependable, too
Do you hear that playin’?
Yes, we hear that playin’
Do you know who’s playin’?
No, who is that playin’?
