lyrics
CHRISTMAS TREAT, PEPPERMINT
Originally performed by The Sisterhood
Sometimes I do feel holiday blue
But my life turns sweet with good things to eat, like
Peppermint, peppermint
Peppermint, peppermint
Nobody knows just how my life goes
With good things like these, but if you please, try
Peppermint, peppermint
I love my peppermint stick
'Cause my peppermint
Wow, what a treat to eat
In my juicy assortments, sweet glazed cherries
Jellies and things are often tasty but plain, delicious
Peppermint cane
Peppermint cane
I'm free and alive
Oh most of the time I'm feeling fine
And time after time you'll hear me say
Peppermint, peppermint
I love my peppermint stick
'Cause my peppermint
Wow, what a treat to eat
Wow!
There are other things too
A lot of things new, so they say
But Christmas isn't complete without
Peppermint, peppermint
Peppermint, peppermint
Bagfuls of candies: blue, red, and green
But number one on the world's scene is
Peppermint, peppermint
I love my peppermint stick
'Cause my peppermint
Wow! What a treat to eat
Ooh, delicious peppermint cane, peppermint cane
I love my peppermint, peppermint
I love my peppermint stick
'Cause my peppermint
Wow, what a treat to eat
Wow!
Ooh, delicious...
Peppermint cane
