Christmas Songs聖誕節歌詞－新羅曼食之戀

A Baby Just Like You

The season is upon us now  A time for gifts and giving  And as the year draws to its close  I think about my living  The Christmas time when I was young,  The magic and the wonder,  But colors dull and candles dim,  And dark my standing under  O little Zachary, shining light  You've set my soul to dreaming  You've given back my joy in life  And filled me with new meaning  A Savior King was born that day,  A baby just like you,  And as the Magi came with gifts,  I come with my gift too  That peace on Earth fills up your time,  That brotherhood surrounds you.  That you may know the warmth of love,  And wrap it all around you  It's just a wish, a dream I'm told  From days when I was young  Merry Christmas, little Zachary  Merry Christmas, everyone  Merry Christmas, little Zachary  Merry Christmas, everyone

All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth

Every body stops  and stares at me  These two teeth are  gone as you can see  I don't know just who  to blame for this catastrophe!  But my one wish on Christmas Eve  is as plain as it can be!  All I want for Christmas  is my two front teeth,  my two front teeth,  see my two front teeth!  Gee, if I could only  have my two front teeth,  then I could with you  "Merry Christmas."  It seems so long since I could say,  "Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"  Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,  if I could only whistle (thhhh)  All I want for Christmas  is my two front teeth,  my two front teeth,  see my two front teeth.  Gee, if I could only  have my two front teeth,  then I could wish you  "Merry Christmas!"

Blue Christmas

I'll have a blue Christmas without you;  I'll be so blue thinking about you.  Decorations of red  on a green Christmas tree  Won't mean a thing if  you're not here with me  I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain;  And when that blue heartache starts hurting,  You'll be doing all right  with your Christmas of white,  But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas.

Christmas Dinner

Paul Stookey, 1963

And it came to pass on a Christmas evening  While all the doors were shuttered tight  Outside standing, lonely boy-child  Cold and shivering in the night  On the street, every window  Save but one, was gleaming bright  And to this window walked the boy-child  Peeking in saw, candle light  Through other windows he had looked at turkeys  Ducks and geese, cherry pies  But through this window saw a grey-haired lady  Table bare and tears in her eyes  Into his coat reached the boy-child  Knowing well there was little there  He took from his pocket,  his own Christmas dinner  A bit of cheese, some bread to share  His outstretched hands  held the food and they trembled  As the door, it opened wide  Said he, Would you share with me Christmas dinner  Gently said she, Come inside  The grey-haired lady brought forth to the table  Glasses two and her last drop of wine  Said she, Here's a toast to everyone's Christmas  and especially, yours and mine  And it came to pass on that Christmas evening  While all the doors were shuttered tight  That in that town, the happiest Christmas  Was shared by candle light

Christmas For Cowboys

Tall in the saddle we spend Christmas day  Driving the cattle on the snow-covered plains.  All of the good gifts given today;  Ours is the sky and the wide open range.  Back in the cities, they have different ways,  Football and eggnog and Christmas parades.  I'll take the blanket; I'll take the reins;  Christmas for Cowboys and wide open plains.  A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night;  The stars overhead are the Christmas-tree lights.  The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray;  Christmas for Cowboys and the wide open plains.  It's tall in the saddle we spend Christmas Day,  Driving the cattle on the snow-covered plains.  So many gifts have been opened today;  Ours is the sky and the wide open range.  It's Christmas for Cowboys and wide open plains.

Christmas In Killarney

The holly green, the ivy green  The prettiest picture you've ever seen  Is Christmas in Killarney  With all of the folks at home  It's nice, you know, to kiss your beau  While cuddling under the mistletoe  And Santa Claus you know, of course  Is one of the boys from home  The door is always open  The neighbors pay a call  And Father John before he's gone  Will bless the house and all  How grand it feels to click your heels  And join in the fun of the jigs and reels  I'm handing you no blarney  The likes you've never known  Is Christmas in Killarney  With all of the folks at home

Deck The Halls

Deck the halls with boughs of holly  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  'Tis the season to be jolly  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  Don we now our gay apparel  Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.  Troll the ancient Yule-tide carol  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.  See the blazing Yule before us.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  Strike the harp and join the chorus.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  Follow me in merry measure.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  While I tell of Yule-tide treasure.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  Fast away the old year passes.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  Hail the new year, lads and lasses  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  Sing we joyous, all together.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la  heedless of the wind and weather.  Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

First Christmas

Stan Rogers, 1979, on Between The Breaks

This day a year ago, he was rolling in the snow  With a younger brother in his father's yard  Christmas break, a time for touching home,  the heart of all he'd known  And leaving was so hard  Three thousand miles away,  now he's working Christmas Day  Making double time for the minding of the store  Well he always said, he'd make it on his own  He's spending Christmas Eve alone  First Christmas away from home  She's standing by the train station,  pan-handling for change  Four more dollars buys a decent meal and a room  Looks like the Sally Ann place after all,  in a crowded sleeping hall  That echoes like a tomb  But it's warm and clean and free,  and there are worse places to be  At least it means no beating from her Dad  And if she cries because it's Christmas Day  She hopes that it won't show  First Christmas away from home  In the apartment stands a tree,  and it looks so small and bare  Not like it was meant to be,  Golden angel on the top  It's not that same old silver star,  you wanted for your own  First Christmas away from home  In the morning, they get prayers,  then it's crafts and tea downstairs  Then another meal back in his little room  Hoping maybe that "the boys"  will think to phone before the day is gone  Well, it's best they do it soon  When the "old girl" passed away,  he fell apart more every day  Each had always kept the other pretty well  But the kids all said the nursing home was best  Cause he couldn't live alone  First Christmas away from home  In the common room they've got the biggest tree  And it's huge and cold and lifeless  Not like it ought to be,  and the lit-up flashing Santa Claus on top  It's not that same old silver star,  you once made for your own  First Christmas away from home

Frosty the Snow Man

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,  With a corncob pipe and a button nose  and two eyes made out of coal.  Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say,  He was made of snow but the children  know how he came to life one day.  There must have been some magic in that  old silk hat they found.  For when they placed it on his head  he began to dance around.  O, Frosty the snowman  was alive as he could be,  And the children say he could laugh  and play just the same as you and me.  Thumpetty thump thump,  thumpety thump thump,  Look at Frosty go.  Thumpetty thump thump,  thumpety thump thump,  Over the hills of snow.  Frosty the snowman knew  the sun was hot that day,  So he said, "Let's run and  we'll have some fun  now before I melt away."  Down to the village,  with a broomstick in his hand,  Running here and there all  around the square saying,  Catch me if you can.  He led them down the streets of town  right to the traffic cop.  And he only paused a moment when  he heard him holler "Stop!"  For Frosty the snow man  had to hurry on his way,  But he waved goodbye saying,  "Don't you cry,  I'll be back again some day."  Thumpetty thump thump,  thumpety thump thump,  Look at Frosty go.  Thumpetty thump thump,  thumpety thump thump,  Over the hills of snow.

Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer

dr. Elmo, 1979, dr. Elmo's Twisted Christmas

Grandma got run over by a reindeer.  Walking home from our house Christmas eve.  You can say there's no such thing as Santa,  but as for me and grandpa we believe.  She'd been drinking too much eggnog,  and we begged her not to go.  But she forgot her medication, and she  staggered out the door into the snow.  When we found her Christmas morning,  at the scene of the attack,  she had hoof-prints on her forehead,  and incriminating Claus marks on her back.  Now we're all so proud of grandpa,  He's been taking this so well.  See him in there watching football,  drinking root beer and  playing cards with Cousin Mel.  It's not Christmas without Grandma,  All the family's dressed in black  and we just can't help but wonder:  Should we open up her gifts,  or send them back?  Send them back!!  Now the goose is on the table  and the pudding made of fig  and the blue and silver candles  that would just have matched  the hair on grandma's wig.  I've warned all my  friends and neighbors  better watch out for yourselves,  they should never give a license  to a man who drives a sleigh  and plays with elves.

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

from the film Meet Me In St. Louis
Hugh Martin, Ralph Blane 1943

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,  Let your heart be light  From now on,  our troubles will be out of sight  Have yourself a merry little Christmas,  Make the Yule-tide gay,  From now on,  our troubles will be miles away.  Here we are as in olden days,  happy golden days of yore.  Faithful friends who are dear to us  gather near to us once more.  Through the years we all will be together  If the Fates allow  Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.  And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

Here Comes Santa Claus

Here comes Santa Claus!  Here comes Santa Claus!  Right down Santa Claus Lane!  Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer  are pulling on the reins.  Bells are ringing, children singing;  All is merry and bright.  Hang your stockings and say your prayers,  'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.  Here comes Santa Claus!  Here comes Santa Claus!  Right down Santa Claus Lane!  He's got a bag that is filled with toys  for the boys and girls again.  Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle,  What a beautiful sight.  Jump in bed, cover up your head,  'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Holly Jolly Christmas

Have a holly, jolly Christmas;  It's the best time of the year  I don't know if there'll be snow,  but have a cup of cheer.  Have a holly, jolly Christmas;  And when you walk down the street  Say Hello to friends you know  and everyone you meet.  Oh, ho, the mistletoe  hung where you can see;  Somebody waits for you;  Kiss her once for me.  Have a holly jolly Christmas,  and in case you didn't hear,  Oh by golly, have a holly,  jolly Christmas this year.

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus

I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus  Underneath the mistletoe last night.  She didn't see me creep  down the stairs to have a peep;  She thought that I was tucked  up in my bedroom fast asleep.  Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus  Underneath his beard so snowy white;  Oh, what a laugh it would have been  If Daddy had only seen  Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night.

I'll Be Home For Christmas

I'll be home for Christmas  You can count on me  Please have snow and mistletoe  and presents on the tree  Christmas Eve will find me  Where the love light gleams  I'll be home for Christmas  If only in my dreams

It's the most wonderful time of the year

Eddie Pola, George Wyle 1963

It's the most wonderful time of the year.  With the kids jingle belling,  and everyone telling you,  "Be of good cheer,"  It's the most wonderful time of the year.  There'll be parties for hosting,  marshmallows for toasting and  caroling out in the snow.  there'll be scary ghost stories and  tales of the glories of Christmases  long, long ago.  It's the most wonderful time of the year.  There'll be much mistletoeing  and hearts will be glowing,  when loved ones are near.  It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Jingle Bell Rock

Bobby Helms

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock  Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring  Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun  Now the jingle hop has begun  Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock  Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time  Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square  In the frosty air.  What a bright time, it's the right time  To rock the night away  Jingle bell time is a swell time  To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh  Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet  Jingle around the clock  Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet  That's the jingle bell,  That's the jingle bell,  That's the jingle bell rock.

Jingle Bells

James Lord Pierpont publ. 1857

Dashing through the snow  On a one-horse open sleigh,  Over the fields we go,  Laughing all the way;  Bells on bob-tail ring,  making spirits bright,  What fun it is to ride and sing  A sleighing song tonight  Jingle bells, jingle bells,  jingle all the way!  O what fun it is to ride  In a one-horse open sleigh  A day or two ago,  I thought I'd take a ride,  And soon Miss Fanny Bright  Was seated by my side;  The horse was lean and lank;  Misfortune seemed his lot;  He got into a drifted bank,  And we, we got upsot.  Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,  Jingle all the way!  What fun it is to ride  In a one-horse open sleigh.  A day or two ago,  the story I must tell  I went out on the snow  And on my back I fell;  A gent was riding by  In a one-horse open sleigh,  He laughed as there  I sprawling lie,  But quickly drove away.  Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,  Jingle all the way!  What fun it is to ride  In a one-horse open sleigh.  Now the ground is white  Go it while you're young,  Take the girls tonight  And sing this sleighing song;  Just get a bob-tailed bay  two-forty as his speed  Hitch him to an open sleigh  And crack! you'll take the lead.  Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,  Jingle all the way!  What fun it is to ride  In a one-horse open sleigh.

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,  lean your ear this way!  Don't you tell a single soul  what I'm going to say:  Christmas Eve is coming soon;  now, you dear old man  Whisper what you'll bring to me;  tell me if you can.  When the clock is striking twelve,  when I'm fast asleep  Down the chimney, broad and black,  with your pack you'll creep  All the stockings you will find  hanging in a row  Mine will be the shortest one,  you'll be sure to know  Bobby wants a pair of skates,  Suzy wants a sled  Nellie wants a picture book,  yellow, blue, and red  Now I think I'll leave to you  what to give the rest  Choose for me, dear Santa Claus;  you will know the best.

Let It Snow!

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,  But the fire is so delightful,  And since we've no place to go,  Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.  It doesn't show signs of stopping,  And I brought some corn for popping;  The lights are turned way down low,  Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.  When we finally say good night,  How I'll hate going out in the storm;  But if you really hold me tight,  All the way home I'll be warm.  The fire is slowly dying,  And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing,  But as long as you love me so.  Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Nuttin' For Christmas

I broke my bat on Johnny's head;  Somebody snitched on me.  I hid a frog in sister's bed;  Somebody snitched on me.  I spilled some ink on Mommy's rug;  I made Tommy eat a bug;  Bought some gum with a penny slug;  Somebody snitched on me.  Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas  Mommy and Daddy are mad.  I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas  'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.  I put a tack on teacher's chair  somebody snitched on me.  I tied a knot in Susie's hair  somebody snitched on me.  I did a dance on Mommy's plants  climbed a tree and tore my pants  Filled the sugar bowl with ants  somebody snitched on me.  So, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas  Mommy and Daddy are mad.  I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas  'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.  I won't be seeing Santa Claus;  Somebody snitched on me.  He won't come visit me because  Somebody snitched on me.  Next year I'll be going straight;  Next year I'll be good, just wait  I'd start now, but it's too late;  Somebody snitched on me.  So you better be good whatever you do  'Cause if you're bad, I'm warning you,  You'll get nuttin' for Christmas.

O Christmas Tree

O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree,  How steadfast are  your branches!  Your boughs are green  in summer's clime  And through the snows  of wintertime.  O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree,  How steadfast are  your branches!  O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree,  What happiness befalls me  When oft at  joyous Christmas-time  Your form inspires  my song and rhyme.  O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree,  What happiness befalls me  O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree,  Your boughs can  teach a lesson  That constant faith  and hope sublime  Lend strength and  comfort through all time.  O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree,  Your boughs can  teach a lesson

Pine Cones And Holly Berries

Pine cones and Holly Berries  Popcorn for you, apples for me  Red striped candy, nut cracker handy  Kettle a-bubbleing hot as can be.  snow clouds hang low and threatening  Maybe in won't, praying it may  the brightest fireplace glows in every face  Waiting for Christmas day.  There'll be walk-a-round songs and  talk-a-round songs  Songs of the inn and stable.  There'll be morning time songs and  evening time songs  And grace at every table.  And Jingle bells will jingle all the way all day.  It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas  Everywhere you go;  There's a tree in the Grand Hotel,  One in the park as well  The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.  It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas  soon the bells will start  And the thing that will make them ring  is the carol that you sing  Right within your heart.

Rocking around the Christmas Tree

Johnny Marks

Rocking around the Christmas tree  at the Christmas party hop  Mistletoe hung where you can see  every couple tries to stop  Rocking around the Christmas tree,  let the Christmas spirit ring  Later we'll have some pumpkin pie  and we'll do some caroling.  You will get a sentimental  feeling when you hear  Voices singing let's be jolly,  deck the halls with boughs of holly  Rocking around the Christmas tree,  have a happy holiday  Everyone dancing merrily  in the new old-fashioned way.

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer

Words by Robert L. May (c) 1947
Music by Johnny Marks

You know Dasher and Dancer  And Prancer and Vixen,  Comet and Cupid  And Donner and Blitzen.  But do you recall  The most famous reindeer of all?  Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer  (reindeer)  Had a very shiny nose  (like a light bulb)  And if you ever saw it  (saw it)  You would even say it glows  (like a flash light)  All of the other reindeer  (reindeer)  Used to laugh and call him names  (like Pinochio)  They never let poor Rudolph  (Rudolph)  Play in any reindeer games  (like Monopoly)  Then one foggy Christmas Eve  Santa came to say  (Ho Ho Ho)  Rudolph with your nose so bright  Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?  Then all the reindeer loved him  (loved him)  And they shouted out with glee  (yippee)  "Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer  (reindeer)  You'll go down in history!"  (like Columbus)

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

You better watch out  You better not cry  Better not pout  I'm telling you why  Santa Claus is coming to town  He's making a list,  And checking it twice;  Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice.  Santa Claus is coming to town  He sees you when you're sleeping  He knows when you're awake  He knows if you've been bad or good  So be good for goodness sake!  O! You better watch out!  You better not cry.  Better not pout, I'm telling you why.  Santa Claus is coming to town.  Santa Claus is coming to town.

Silver Bells

Christmas makes you feel emotional  It may bring parties or thoughts devotional  Whatever happens or what may be,  Here is what Christmas time means to me.  City sidewalk, busy sidewalks  dressed in holiday style.  In the air there's  a feeling of Christmas.  Children laughing, people passing,  meeting smile after smile,  And on every street corner you'll hear:  Silver bells, silver bells,  It's Christmas time in the city.  Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,  soon it will be Christmas day.  City street lights,  even stop lights,  blink a bright red and green,  As the shoppers rush home  with their treasures.  Hear the snow crunch,  see the kids bunch,  This is Santa's big scene,  And above all this bustle you'll hear:  Silver bells, silver bells,  It's Christmas time in the city.  Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,  soon it will be Christmas day.

Sleep Well, Little Children

Sleep well, little children,  wherever you are;  Tomorrow is Christmas  beneath every star.  Soon the snowflakes will fall  and tomorrow you'll see  Every wish, one and all,  waiting under the tree.  Sleep well, little children,  pleasant dreams through the night;  Tomorrow is Christmas,  all merry and bright.  Soon you'll hear the bells ring,  time for dreams to come true  As the world wakes to bring  Merry Christmas to you.

Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you, Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoo hoo," Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, let's go, Let's look at the show, We're riding in a wonderland of snow. Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, it's grand, Just holding your hand, We're gliding along with a song of a wintry fairy land. Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray It'll be the perfect ending a perfect day We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop, At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop. Pop! pop! pop! There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy, When they pass around the chocolate and the pumpkin pie It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives! Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you, Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoo hoo," Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, let's go, Let's look at the show, We're riding in a wonderland of snow. Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, it's grand, Just holding your hand, We're gliding along with a song of a wintry fairy land Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.

Tennessee Christmas

Come on, weather man,  give us a forecast snowy white  Can't you hear the prayers  of every childlike heart tonight  Rockies are calling, Denver snow falling  Somebody said it's four feet deep  But it doesn't matter, give me the laughter  I'm gonna choose to keep.  Another tender Tennessee Christmas  The only Christmas for me  Where the love circles around us  Like the gifts around our tree  Well, I know there's more snow up in Colorado  Than my roof will ever see  But a tender Tennessee Christmas  is the only Christmas for me.  Every now and then I get a wandering urge to see  Maybe California, maybe Tinsel Town's for me  There's a parade there, we'd have it made there  Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve  Sure sounds inviting, awfully exciting  Still I think I'm gonna keep.  Another tender Tennessee Christmas  The only Christmas for me  Where the love circles around us  Like the gifts around our tree  Well, they say in L.A. it's a warm holiday  It's the only place to be  But a tender Tennessee Christmas  is the only Christmas for me.

The Christmas Song

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire  Jack Frost nipping at your nose  Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir  And folks dressed up like Eskimos.  Everybody knows a turkey  and some mistletoe  Help to make the season bright  Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow  Will find it hard to sleep tonight.  They know that Santa's on his way  He's loaded lots of toys  and goodies on his sleigh  And every mother's child is gonna spy  To see if reindeer  really know how to fly.  And so I'm offering this simple phrase  To kids from one to ninety-two  Although it's been said  many times, many ways  Merry Christmas to you.

The Little Drummer Boy

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled down for a long winter's nap, When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below, When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer, With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick. More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name; "Now! Dasher, now! Dancer, now! Prancer, and Vixen! On! Comet, on! Cupid, on! Dunder and Blixem! To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall! Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!" As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too. And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I drew in my hand, and was turning around, Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound. He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot, And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot; A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack. His eyes -- how they twinkled! his dimples how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow; The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath; He had a broad face and a little round belly, That shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly. He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself; A wink of his eye and a twist of his head, Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread; He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk, And laying his finger aside of his nose, And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose; He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight, "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

Up On the Housetop

Up on the housetop  reindeer pause,  Out jumps good old Santa Claus.  Down thru' the chimney  with lots of toys,  All for the little ones,  Christmas joys.  Ho, ho, ho!  Who wouldn't go!  Ho, ho, ho!  Who wouldn't go!  Up on the housetop,  click, click, click,  Down thru' the chimney  with good Saint Nick.  First comes the stocking  of little Nell,  Oh, dear Santa  fill it well;  Give her a dolly  that laughs and cries  One that will open  and shut her eyes.  Ho, ho, ho!  Who wouldn't go!  Ho, ho, ho!  Who wouldn't go!  Up on the housetop,  click, click, click,  Down thru' the chimney  with good Saint Nick.  Next comes the stocking  of little Will,  Oh just see  what a glorious fill  Here is a hammer  and lots of tacks,  Also a ball  and a whip that cracks.  Ho, ho, ho!  Who wouldn't go!  Ho, ho, ho!  Who wouldn't go!  Up on the housetop,  click, click, click,  Down thru' the chimney  with good Saint Nick.

White Christmas

Irving Berlin 1942

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas  Just like the ones I used to know  Where the treetops glisten  and children listen  To hear sleigh bells in the snow.  I'm dreaming of a white Christmas  With every Christmas card I write  May your days be merry and bright  And may all your Christmases be white.  I'm dreaming of a white Christmas  With every Christmas card I write  May your days be merry and bright  And may all your Christmases be white.

Winter Wonderland

Dick Smith, Felix Bernard 1934

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,  in the lane, snow is glistening  A beautiful sight,  we're happy tonight,  walking in a winter wonderland.  Gone away is the bluebird,  here to stay is a new bird  He sings a love song,  as we go along,  walking in a winter wonderland.  In the meadow we can build a snowman,  Then pretend that he is Parson Brown  He'll say: Are you married?  we'll say: No man,  But you can do the job  when you're in town.  Later on, we'll conspire,  as we dream by the fire  To face unafraid,  the plans that we've made,  walking in a winter wonderland.  In the meadow we can build a snowman,  and pretend that he's a circus clown  We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,  until the other kids knock him down.  When it snows, ain't it thrilling,  Though your nose gets a chilling  We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,  walking in a winter wonderland.  Walking in a winter wonderland,  walking in a winter wonderland.
