Well, thank you Johnny
It's been a nice to know ya
Gotta thank everyone for all the presents

On behalf of John and I - George speaking

All the Christmas cards and
Presents and birthday

Down in the jungle where the old black go
We got some, we got some
Down in the jungle where the old black go
We got some, we got some
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
For the sake of auld lang syne?
For the sake of auld lang syne, my dear?
For the sake of auld lang syne?
For the sake of auld lang syne, my dear?
For the sake of auld lang syne?
One, one, two, three
Well, for the sake of Auld
Lang Syne that reminds me, ringo
Yes last year
You was here
We was here round the same
Old mic same old studio
Same old guitars same old faces
It's the same old song
But a different meaning since
Copyright, Johnny!
Copyright can't say that
Hey, yeah! All right what are we
Gonna do without a copyright, yeah?
How about "We'll gather Lilacs in
An Old Brown Shoe"?
Yeah, yes that has a copyright
Alright, let's play a request
Something Christmassy
For all the boys in BAORE
Yeah, alright
What shall we play for them? 'cause we
Got some fans in the forces, you know
Well, here in Munich
It's not quite as fine as it is in London
Well, Kenneth, the weather's raining here
It's not very good
Well it's not bad over here
But summer, you know
We had a bit of rain and all that
Stay tuned in, it's a five-way link-up
If you've enjoyed this program
Tune to 29314567
Megacycles if you can't find that, drop it!
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind? China!
Don in Vietnam and Chinatoo
And look at all those bodies Jordan
Floating in the River Jordan
Well, that looks as though it's
About it for the year
Well, that should cover Israel
We've certainly tried our best to, ah
Please everybody
Please everybody if we haven't done what
We could've done we've tried
And if you haven't got yours
Send four pence in and get a free one!
And seeing as
(since?) we're gathered around the Christmas
Microphone here in the studio
We might as well get together with
A little Christmas message for you
Which goes something like this
Like this
Christmas comes but once a year
But when it does, you know it's here
Because we've got a hmm-mm-mm-aam- singing
Christmas comes but once a year
But when it does it brings good cheer
Because we've got the hmm-mm-mm-aam -
For Christmas
