Paul McCartney is simply having a “Wonderful Christmastime,” especially this year after his McCartney III album dropped on Friday (Dec. 18) and his Christmas song re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 in the Dec. 19-dated week.
The holiday jingle originally appeared on Wings’ final album Back to the Egg in 1979 and the deluxe reissue of his solo album McCartney II. He goes caroling with his former band at a Christmas party in the official music video.
Check out the lyrics and music video below.
The mood is right
The spirits up
We’re here tonight
And that’s enough
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The party’s on
The feeling’s here
That only comes
This time of year
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The choir of children sing their song
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding ooh ooh
Do-do, do-do, do-do, do
We’re simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The word is out
About the town
So lift a glass
Oh and don’t look down
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The choir of children sing their song
They practiced all year long
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding dong (dong)
Ding dong, ding dong (dong)
Ding dong, dong dong
The party’s on
The spirits up
We’re here tonight
And that’s enough (ohh)
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
We’re simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The mood is right
The spirits up
We’re here tonight
Oh and that’s enough (yeah)
We’re simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Wonderful Christmastime (Christmas)
