DJ Play A Christmas Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No one on the streets and the city is quiet
I should be asleep by the heat of the fire
But I'm on my way out
And I'm gonna stay out
I can feel the pulse as I walk in the door
Take me through the crowd, through the middle of the floor
The red and the green lights
Are hitting me just right

[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing more, nothing less
I got one request

[Chorus]
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing all night long
It's cold outside, but it's warm in here
And that's the only thing I want this year
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing all night long
It's tough outside, but it's love in here
And that's the only thing I want this year

[Verse 2]
Everybody hеre must be feeling the samе
Need a little joy and a little escape
Feeling the spirit
You just wanna hear it
[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing more, nothing less
I got one request

[Chorus]
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing all night long
It's cold outside, but it's warm in here
And that's the only thing I want this year
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing all night long
It's tough outside, but it's love in here
And that's the only thing I want this year

[Post-Chorus]
That's the only thing I want this year
That's the only thing I want this year
That's the only thing I want this year
That's the only thing I want this year

[Bridge]
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing, dancing all night long

[Chorus]
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing all night long
It's cold outside, but it's warm in here
And that's the only thing I want this year
DJ, play a Christmas song
I wanna be dancing all night long
It's tough outside, but it's love in here
And that's the only thing I want this year
[Post-Chorus]
That's the only thing I want this year (DJ, play a Christmas song)
That's the only thing I want this year (I wanna be dancing all night long)
That's the only thing I want this year (It's cold outside, but it's warm in here)
That's the only thing I want this year

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
