Freddie, the Little Fir Tree Lyrics

Freddy, the little fir tree
Stood in the forest tall
He wished he could be a Christmas tree
But he was much too small
Christmas season had come
And Christmas carols chimed
Now, Freddy was teased by the larger trees
For he was left behind

Then came a man with an axe in his hand
And much to Freddy′s joy
He cut him down and took him to town
Where he caught the eye of a little boy
Now, Freddy, the little fir tree
Stands in a window wide
All green and red with an angel on his head
And shinin' on the snow outside

Freddy, the little fir tree
Stood in the forest tall
He wished he could be a Christmas tree
But he was much too small
Christmas season had come
And Christmas carols chimed
Now, Freddy was teased by the larger trees
For he was left behind

Then came a man with an axe in his hand
And much to Freddy′s joy
He cut him down and took him to town
Where he caught the eye of a little boy
Now, Freddy, the little fir tree
Stands in a window wide
All green and red with an angel on his head
And shinin' on the snow outside

They all agreed, "He's a beautiful tree
Too bad that he can′t stay"
The children know he′ll have to go
When the holidays have passed away
But Freddy, the little fir tree
Is happy as he can be
For his dream came true when they changed him to
A merry little Christmas tree

(He's a very merry little Christmas tree)
