The Lyrics Dean & Frank sang for Marshmallow World during this 1967 Christmas Show performance are:
It’s a marshmallow world in the winter When the snow comes to cover the ground It’s time for play, it’s a whipped cream day I wait for it the whole year ’round
Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly In the arms of the evergreen trees And the sun is red, like a pumpkin head It’s shining so your nose won’t freeze
Oh, the world is your snowball, see how it grows That’s how it goes, whenever it snows The world is your snowball just for a song Get out and roll it along
Oh, it’s a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts Take a walk with your favorite girl It’s a sugar date, what if spring is late In winter it’s a marshmallow world
It’s a marshmallow world in the winter When the snow comes to cover the ground It’s time for play, it’s a whipped cream day I wait for it the whole year round
(Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly In the arms of the evergreen trees) And the sun is red, like a pumpkin head It’s shining so your nose won’t freeze
Oh, the world is your snowball, see how it grows That’s how it goes, whenever it snows The world is your snowball just for a song Get out and roll it along
It’s a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts Take a walk with your favorite girl It’s a sugar date, what if spring is late In winter it’s a marshmallow world
Songwriters: Carl Sigman / Peter De Rose
