• Train - Shake Up Christmas (Lyrics)

[Intro]
Ho, ho, ho
Shake up the happiness
Wake up the happiness
Shake up the happiness
It's Christmastime

[Verse 1]
There's a story that I was told
And I wanna tell the world before I get too old
And don't remember it, so let's December it
And reassemble it, oh, yeah
Once upon a time, in a town like this
A little girl made a great big wish
To fill the world full of happiness
And be on Santa's magic list

[Chorus]
Shake it up, shake up the happiness
Wake it up, wake up the happiness
Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime
Shake it up, shake up the happiness
Wake it up, wake up the happiness
Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime

[Interlude]
Ho, ho, ho
Ho, ho, ho
It's Christmastime

[Verse 2]
At the same time, miles away
A little boy made a wish that day
That the world would be okay
And Santa Claus would hear him say:
"I got dreams and I got love
I got my feet on the ground and family above
Can you send some happiness with my best
To the rest of the people of the East and the West
And maybe every once in a while
You give my grandma a reason to smile
'Tis the season to smile
It's cold, but we'll be freezing in style
And let me meet a girl one day
That wants to spread some love this way
We can let our souls run free
And she can open some happiness with me"

[Chorus]
Shake it up, shake up the happiness
Wake it up, wake up the happiness
Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime
Shake it up, shake up the happiness
Wake it up, wake up the happiness
Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime

[Bridge]
I know you're out there, I hear your reindeer
I see the snow where your boots have been
I'm gonna show them, so they will know then
Their love will grow and they believe again

[Chorus]
Shake it up, shake it up, shake up the happiness
Wake it up, wake up the happiness
Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime
Shake it up, shake up the happiness
Wake it up, wake up the happiness
Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime

[Interlude]
Ho, ho, ho
Ho, ho, ho
It's Christmastime

[Chorus]
(Ho, ho, ho) Shake it up, shake up the happiness
(Ho, ho, ho) Wake it up, wake up the happiness
(Ho, ho, ho) Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime
(Ho, ho, ho) Shake it up, shake up the happiness
(Ho, ho, ho) Wake it up, wake up the happiness
(Ho, ho, ho) Come on, y'all
It's Christmastime

[Outro]
Ho, ho, ho
Ho, ho, ho
Ho, ho, ho
It's Christmastime
