Aretha Franklin and Edward Franklin - This Christmas

Hello?
Hi, Merry Christmas, sweetnin'
How are you?
Oh, I'm cooking, the bells ringin', people are running back and forth
Coming in and out, the kids are here, you know
Uh, cooking everything
Okay
Ooh, my food is burning, I'll call you back

Oh, baby, yeah
Ah, darlin', darlin', darlin', baby

Hang all the mistletoe
I'm gonna get to know you better this Christmas
And as we trim the tree
How much fun it's gonna be together this Christmas

Fireside is blazing bright
And we're caroling through the night, yeah
And this Christmas will be, oh
A very special Christmas
Oh yeah, for me, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Hi Eddie, my son
Sing, Ed

Presents and cards are here
My world is filled with cheer and you (oh yeah), this Christmas
And as I look around (oh yeah)
Your eyes outshine the town, oh, they do, this Christmas
The fireside is blazing bright
Said we're caroling through the night
Eddie, you mustn't upstage mom with those high notes
Shake a hand, shake a hand, meet a friend, meet a friend yo
Baby

This Christmas

Fireside is blazing bright
And we're caroling through the night

And this Christmas will be
A very, very, very special Christmas
For me, yes it will
This is what we got to do, gang
Oh, oh, oh for me

Oh, this Christmas
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This Christmas
If you're sitting somewhere and you got the blues
Think about the man who ain't got no shoes, yeah, yeah
Hang on
Hold on until Christmas
Higher, higher
Hang on
Oh, to Christmas
Hang on
Hold on until Christmas
Yeah, hold onto your faith 'til Christmas
And after
For long after
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This Christmas
This Christmas, this Christmas
Well, well, well, well, well, well
Hold on, hold on
Until Christmas
You gotta gold on

Merry Christmas, Ma
And when the greens gon' be ready?
Merry Christmas, Eddie
The greens are almost ready, everything is on the stove
But don't look for no chittlins this year
Them chittlins almost killed me last year
