Lyrics:
So this is Christmas
And what have you done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you had fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas (War is over)
For weak and for strong (If you want it)
For rich and the poor ones (War is over)
The road is so long (Now)
And so Happy Christmas (War is over)
For black and for white (If you want it)
The near and the dear ones (War is over)
Let's stop all the fight (Now)
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas (War is over)
And what have we done? (If you want it)
Another year over (War is over)
And a new one just begun (Now)
And so Happy Christmas (War is over)
We hope you have fun (If you want it)
The near and the dear ones (War is over)
The old and the young (Now)
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over if you want it
War is over now

    Beautiful song, beautiful woman! And fifty years after John released this when the Vietnam War was winding down, we're STILL in wars all over the planet!! I think John would be just as disgusted about this as I am!!

    , I agree 100% I've seen wars all my life on TV. The ongoing war in Vietnam in the '60s and '70s I was only a kid back then but saw things on TV that no kid ought to see these days.

    That was sweet! And with all due respect to John and Yoko, I wish my local radio stations were playing your cover instead of the original. The original sounds to me like someone approached John Lennon and said, "Hey, you and Yoko ought to sing a Christmas carol", so he just came up with it off the top of his head and said, "OK, here's your Christmas carol." It's simple, and it's kitschy/catchy earworm material, but there's nothing particularly interesting about it and it doesn't showcase his talents. Your interpretation has dimensions to it while remaining faithful to the simplicity of the original, sounds like you really cared about it and has an authentic holiday sound. And the video looks truly classy. Brava!
