Nat King Cole - The Christmas Song (By The Fireside)

LYRICS
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe,
Help to make the season bright,
Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow,
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh,
And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy,
To see if reindeer really know how to fly.

And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although it's been said
Many times, Many ways
Merry Christmas to you.

[musical interlude]

And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although it's been said
Many times, Many ways
Merry Christmas to you.

You know when it's a good song when it's almost June and you're listening a Christmas Song... Btw, you should check Pentatonix's version, really awesome...

[GeoAl09]

what version is this and what year was it released? I'm curious because there has been several releases of this same song by Nat. I'm trying to make sure I get the right vinyl copy of this song.
