Warbucks
I know the Depression`s depressing
Grace
The carols are stilled
The stored aren`t filled
Warbucks
And the windows are minus the dressing
Grace
The children don`t grin
The Santa`s are thin
Grace and Warbucks
And I`ve heard a terrible rumour
No goodwill no cheer
Warbucks
But we`ll get a new deal for Christmas
This year
Annie and Orphans
The snowflakes are frighting of falling
Molly
And oh, what a fix
No peppermint sticks!
Warbucks
And all through the land folks are bawling
Grace
And filled with despair
`Cause cupboards are bare
Warbucks
But Santa`s got brand new assistants
There`s nothing to fear
They`re bringing a new deal deal for Christmas
This year.
Servants
Bong, bong, bong, bong
Bong, bong, bong, bong
Roosevelt
On Farley and Perkins
On Ikes and Wallace
On Monganthau and Cummings.
All
Fill our pockets with dollars
Roosevelt
On Roper and Swanson
Roosevelt and Warbucks
Get along Cordell Hull
Orphans
Get along giddy up
Men
Call your committee up
Women
Build every city up
All
Cheer every kiddy up
Fill every stocking with laughter
We haven`t got room for any more gloom
Let`s ring every bell from it`s rafter
Warbucks
And chime cross the land
Annie
Tomorrow`s at hand
Warbucks
Those happy days that we were promised.
Roosevelt
Are finally here
All
We`re getting a new deal for Christmas
We`re getting a new deal for Christmas
We`re getting a new deal for Christmas
We`re getting a new deal for Christmas
Christmas
This year
