1. Auld Lang Syne Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgotten, And days of auld lang syne For auld lang syne,
For auld lang syne,
should auld acquaintance be forgot
and days of auld lang syne
[Instrumental version repeats]
We two have run about the hills And gathered flowers fine, We’ve wandered many a weary foot Since auld lang syne!
We two have sported in the brook From mornings until dawn, But the seas between us have roared and swelled Since auld lang syne!
For auld lang syne,
For auld lang syne,
The seas between us have roared and swelled
Since auld lang syne!
For here is a hand, my trusted friend, And give me a hand of thy, We’ll take a cup of kindness yet For auld lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne,
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne
2. White Christmas 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
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
3. Silver Bells City sidewalks, 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 hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights, even stoplights
Blinking 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 the bustle you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
[Instrumental version repeats]
Soon it will be Christmas Day
4. It’s Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Everywhere you go Take a look in the five-and-ten Glistening once again With candy canes and silver lanes aglow It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Toys in every store But the prettiest sight to see Is the holly that will be On your own front door A pair of hop along boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Is the hope for Janice and Jen And mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Everywhere you go Now 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
[break] A pair of hop along boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Is the hope for Janice and Jen And mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again Ah, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha! 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
5. Christmas Time is Here Christmas time is here Happiness and cheer Fun for all that children call Their favorite time of year
Snowflakes in the air Carols everywhere Olden times and ancient rhymes Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air Beauty everywhere Yuletide by the fireside And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here We'll be drawing near Oh, that we could always see Such spirit through the year
[break]
Sleigh bells in the air Beauty everywhere Yuletide by the fireside And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here We'll be drawing near Oh, that we could always see Such spirit through the year
6. O Little Town of Bethlehem O little town of Bethlehem How still we see thee lie Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary And gathered all above While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love O morning stars together Proclaim the holy birth And praises sing to God the King And Peace to men on earth
[Instrumental version: break]
O holy Child of Bethlehem Descend to us, we pray Cast out our sin and enter in Be born in us today We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell O come to us, abide with us Our Lord Emmanuel Oh come to us, abide with us Our Lord Emmanuel
7. Oh Holy Night O holy night The stars are brightly shining It is the night Of our dear Savior's birth Long lay the world in sin and error pining Till he appear'd and the soul felt its worth A thrill of hope The weary world rejoices For yonder breaks A new and glorious morn Fall on your knees Oh hear the angel voices Oh night divine Oh night when Christ was born Oh night divine Oh night, oh night divine Chains shall He break For the slave is our brother And in His name all oppression shall cease Sweet hymns of joy In grateful chorus raise we Let all within us praise His holy name Christ is the Lord, let ever, ever praise Thee Noël, Noël Oh night, Oh night divine Noël, Noël Oh night, Oh night divine Noël, Noël Oh night, oh night divine
8. Silent Night Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace Silent night, holy night Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar Heavenly hosts sing 'Alleluia! Christ the Savior is born Christ the Savior is born Silent night, holy night Son of God, love's pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face With the dawn of redeeming grace Jesus Lord, at Thy birth Jesus Lord, at Thy birth [Instrumental version ends] Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace
9. Blue Christmas I'll have a Blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with
me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of
white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of
white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
10. Please Come Home for Christmas
Bells will be ringing the sad, sad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Choirs will be singin' 'Silent Night'
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Year's night
Friends and relations send salutation
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
It's the time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Christmas and New Year will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again
Ooh, there'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I'll be happy Christmas once again
11. Sleigh Ride 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 snuggle close 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 of a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop
At the fireplace where we’ll watch the chestnuts pop; Pop! Pop!
Pop!
There's a happy feeling nothing in this world can buy
When they pass around the coffee 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
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" (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
Nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we
We've snuggled close 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
[Instrumental version ends]
It's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
12. It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you be a good cheer
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and gay
happy meetings
When friends come to call
It's the hap-happiest season of all
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 mistletoe-ing
And hearts will be glowing
When loved ones are near

And hearts will be glowing
When love ones are near

Yes, the most wonderful time

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy I keep my distance But you still catch my eye Tell me, baby Do you recognize me? Well, it's been a year It doesn't surprise me (Merry Christmas) I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying, "I love you, " I meant it Now, I know what a fool I've been But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again

This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you, and your soul of ice My god, I thought you were someone to rely on Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover but you tore me apart Now, I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special

I'm just gonna keep on waiting Underneath the mistletoe I won't make a list and send it To the North Pole for Saint Nick I won't even stay awake to Hear those magic reindeer click 'Cause I just want you here tonight Holding on to me so tight What more can I do Baby all I want for Christmas is you You baby All the lights are shining So brightly everywhere And the sound of children's Laughter fills the air And everyone is singing I hear those sleigh bells ringing Santa won't you bring me the one I really need Won't you please bring my baby to me Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas This is all I'm asking for I just want to see my baby Standing right outside my door Oh I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true Baby all I want for Christmas…is you All I want for Christmas is you baby All I want for Christmas is you baby All I want for Christmas is you baby

20. 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 stoppin'
And I brought me some corn for poppin'
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
When we finally kiss 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
And 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
When we finally kiss good-night
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really grab me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
Oh the fire is slowly dying
But, 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
Kids’ Songs
41. Away in a Manger
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
I love thee, Lord Jesus look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle ‘till morning is nigh Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care
And take us to heaven to live with thee there
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
42. You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an
eel
Mr. Grinch
You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel
You're a monster, Mr. Grinch
Your heart's an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders, you've got garlic in your soul,
Mr. Grinch
I wouldn't touch you with a
Thirty-nine and a half foot pole
You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch
You have termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile
Mr. Grinch
Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crocodile
You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch
You're a nasty wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks, your soul is full of
gunk
Mr. Grinch
The three best words that best describe you
Are as follows, and I quote
Stink
Stank
Stunk
You're a rotter Mr. Grinch
You're the king of sinful sots
Your heart's a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple
spots
Mr. Grinch
Your soul is an appalling dump heap
Overflowing with the most disgraceful
Assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable
Mangled up in tangled up knots
You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch
With a nauseous super nos
You're a crooked jerky jockey, and you drive a crooked
horse
Mr. Grinch
You're a three-decker sauerkraut
And toadstool sandwich
With arsenic sauce
43. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
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
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
"Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You'll go down in history"
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Santa came to say
"Rudolph, with your nose so bright

As they shouted out with glee
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

44. Frosty the Snowman Frosty the Snowman, was a jolly happy soul,
With a corn cob pipe and a button nose, and two eyes made of
coal.
Frosty the Snowman, is a fairytale, they say.
He was made of snow, but the children know 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!
Oh, 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.
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,
sayin', "Catch me if you can."
He led them down the streets of town, right to the traffic cop;
and only paused a moment, when he heard him holler, "Stop!"
For Frosty, the Snowman, had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't you cry, I'll be back again
some day."
Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
look at Frosty go.
Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
over the hills of snow.
45. Santa Clause is Coming to Town

You better not cry
You 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,

So be good for goodness sake!

46. Jingle Bells Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
The bells on bob-tail ring
They make our spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh-hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh 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
We got into a drifted bank
And we, we got upset
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh-hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Now the ground is white
So go it while you’re young
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song
Just get a bobtailed bay
Two forty for his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack, you’ll take the lead
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones
Christmas joys
Ho, ho, ho!
Oh, who wouldn't go!
Ho, ho, ho!
Who wouldn't go!
Up on the housetop click, click, click
Down through 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 can open and shut its eyes
Ho, ho, ho!
Who wouldn't go!
Ho, ho, ho!
Who wouldn't go!
Up on the housetop click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
A whistle and 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
Ho, ho, ho
Who wouldn’t go
Ho, ho, ho
Who wouldn’t go
Up on the housetop click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick

50. Go Tell it on the Mountain
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
While shepherds kept their watching
O’er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens,
There shone a holy light
The shepherds feared and trembled
When lo above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed the Saviour's birth
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation,
That blessed Christmas morn
So, go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

53. I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinkey tinker toy
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use a dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door
That's the easy thing to do
I can see me now on Christmas morning
Creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy, what surprise
When I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinosauruses
I only likes hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me, too
Mom says a hippo, would eat me up but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian
There's lots of room for him in our two-car
garage
I'd feed him there and wash him there and
give him his massage
I can see me now on Christmas morning
Creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy, what surprise
When I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, or rhinosauruseses
I only likes hippopotamuseses
And hippopotamuses like me, too

56. Jolly Old Saint Nicholas
Jolly old St. Nicholas
Lean your ear this way
Don't you tell a single soul
What I'm going to say
Christmas Eve will soon be here
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 with your pack
Softly you will creep
All the stockings you will find
Hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one
You'll be sure to know
Johnny wants a pair of skates
Suzie wants a sleigh
Nellie wants a story book
One she hasn’t read
As for me, I hardly know
So I’ll go to rest
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus
What you think is best
57. All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, just my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
It seems so long since I could say
Sister Suzy sitting on a thistle
Gosh oh gee, how happy I’d be
If I could only whistle
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, just my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, just my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
Santa Claus and his reindeer
Used to bring me lots of toys and candy
Now when I try to call their names
None of them can understand me
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, just my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
