"A Marshmallow World" (sometimes called "It's a Marshmallow World") is a popular song that was written in 1949 by Carl Sigman (lyrics) and Peter DeRose (music). The song is about winter and is commonly regarded as a Christmas song, although the lyrics make no mention of the holiday.
The song was first a hit for Bing Crosby (backed by the Lee Gordon Singers and Sonny Burke and his Orchestra). Crosby's version, recorded in 1950, peaked at number 24 on the pop singles chart in January 1951. Other artists who recorded the song in 1950 included Ray Anthony, Vic Damone, Johnny Desmond, Arthur Godfrey, Vaughn Monroe and Dean Martin.
The Dean Martin Christmas Album is a 1966 studio album by Dean Martin arranged by Ernie Freeman and Bill Justis.
This was Martin's only album of Christmas music released on Reprise Records (his only other Christmas album, A Winter Romance, having been released in 1959 on Capitol Records). It was reissued on CD by Hip-O Records in 2008, retitled A Very Cool Christmas.
Ricci James Martin, Martin's son, wrote in a biography of his father that The Dean Martin Christmas Album was the only one of his father's albums that was played in the Martin household, his parents seldom listening to Dean Martin's music.
It's a marshmallow world
In the winter
When the snow
Comes to cover the ground
It's the time for play
It's a whipped cream day
I wait for it all 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
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

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
In winter
It's a marshmallow world
In winter
It's a marshmallow world.
