"All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth" is a Christmas song that was written by Donald Yetter Gardner. Gardner wrote the song in 1944 while teaching music at public schools in Smithtown, New York. He asked the class what they wanted for Christmas, and noticed that almost all of them had at least one front tooth missing as they answered in a lisp. Gardner wrote the song in 30 minutes. In a 1995 interview, Gardner said, "I was amazed at the way that silly little song was picked up by the whole country."
The song was originally recorded by Spike Jones and The City Slickers on December 6, 1948 (that version reached the top of the charts in early 1949). The song has also been recorded by numerous other singers and performers, including George Strait, Danny Kaye, The Platters, The Andrews Sisters, Nat King Cole, and the cast of Sesame Street.
I used to sing this song when I was 6 years old.

The words and lyrics for All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth are by Don Gardner. The first publication of the Christmas song All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth was in 1946.
I know Spike Jones sang it, but so did other people.

Best singer was my grandson when he lost his two front teeth. And one of the all times great to sing this was Max Bygraves. Born in Rotherhithe London in 1922 and who at the grand old age of 84 now lives in Austrailia with his family.
