"Happy Holiday" (sometimes performed as "Happy Holidays") is a popular song composed by Irving Berlin in 1941. The song was first performed by Bing Crosby for the 1942 film Holiday Inn. While it is often regarded as a Christmas song, in the movie it is performed on New Year's Eve, and expresses a wish for the listener to enjoy "happy holidays" throughout the entire year. The titular phrase is now most commonly associated with inclusive holiday greetings for the period around Christmas and the New Year.

Happy holidays, happy holidays

While the merry bells keep ringing

May your every wish come true

Happy holiday, happy holiday

May the calendar keep bringing

Happy holidays to you

If you're burdened down with trouble

If your nerves are wearin' thin

Park your load down the road

And come to Holiday Inn

If the traffic noise affects you

Like a squeaky violin

Kick your cares down the stairs

Come to Holiday Inn

If you can't find someone

Who will set your heart a-whirl

Take your car and motor to

The home of boy meets girl

If you're laid-up with a breakdown

Throw away your vitamins

Don't get worse, grab your nurse

And come to Holiday Inn

Happy holiday, happy holiday

While the merry bells are ringing

May your every wish come true

Happy holiday, happy holiday

May the calendar keep bringing

Happy holidays to you

Happy holiday, happy holiday

While the merry bells keep ringing

May your every wish come true

Happy holiday, happy holiday

May the calendar keep bringing

Happy holidays to you

Thank you! This is NOT a "war on Christmas" . . . so everyone can relax ! :-) Don't forget the premise of the 1942 film "Holiday Inn": Bing Crosby was trying to establish a nightclub which was only open on "holidays" *throughout the entire year*. These "holidays" also included Christmas :-) HTH

I'm just here to read the outraged comments by people claiming there's a war on Christmas, because of this song. Hmmm, somehow they aren't here.

The so-called "War on Christmas" brought me here. Bing Crosby is in serious trouble, according to Bill O'Reilly.
