Dean Martin’s Live Performance of ‘A Marshmallow World’

Dean Martin takes center stage alongside two women dressed in matching Santa outfits for a lighthearted performance of “A Marshmallow World.”

Originally written in 1949 by Carl Sigman and Peter DeRose, “A Marshmallow World” captures the essence of winter and has become a beloved seasonal favorite. Bing Crosby released his rendition in 1950, and the song went on to inspire several other notable artists to cover it as well.

Dean Martin’s performance of “A Marshmallow World” on his variety show is nothing short of just plain old delightful. As he sings, he playfully interacts with the two women in Santa costumes, who dance around him. The festive ambiance is infectious, and Dean’s mischievous spirit shines. You really can’t help but smile while watching this!

“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.”
