The O'Jays - I Can Hardly Wait 'Til Christmas (EMI Records 1991)

The O'Jays - I Can Hardly Wait 'Til Christmas (EMI Records 1991) The O'Jays are an American R&B group from Canton, Ohio, formed in 1958 and originally consisting of Eddie Levert (born June 16, 1942), Walter Williams (born August 25, 1943), William Powell (January 20, 1942 – May 26, 1977), Bobby Massey and Bill Isles. The O'Jays made their first chart appearance with "Lonely Drifter" in 1963, but reached their greatest level of success once Gamble & Huff, a team of producers and songwriters, signed them to their Philadelphia International label in 1972. With Gamble & Huff, the O'Jays (now a trio after the departure of Isles and Massey) emerged at the forefront of Philadelphia soul with "Back Stabbers" (1972), and topped the Billboard Hot 100 the following year with "Love Train". Numerous other hits followed through the 1970s and into the 80s and 90s, and The O'Jays were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2004, and The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.

I can hardly wait for Christmas
January slow, February snow
Spring it takes so long, Summer's hardly gone
and I can't waait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
while it's Christmas time, our problems disappear
all these special thoughts
going through our mind
seems like every one is filled with love and cheer
they find a way, a reason to be kind
that is why we love this time of the year, cause
January slow (slow), February snow
(Spring takes so long)Spring it takes so long, Summer's hardly gone
cause I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
mmm I wish this feeling would last the whole year through
when it's Christmas time, you give for the heart
seems like everyone is filled with love and cheer
some way we find reasons to be kind
that is why we love this time of the year
cause
January slow(slow), February snow
Spring it takes too long, Summer's almost gone
and I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
Autumn's on its way(way), and then Thanksgiving day
December's finally here, because it's a special time of year
and I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
January slow, February snow
Spring it takes too long, Summer's almost gone
and I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
Autumn's on its way, and then Thanksgiving day
December's finally here, because it's a special time of year
and I can't wait
I can hardly want for Christmas
