1. The Christmas Song
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide 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”
2. 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.
3. DECK THE HALLS
1. Deck the halls with boughs of holly—Fa la la
Tis the season to be jolly—Fa la la
Don we now our gay apparel—Fa la la
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol—Fa la la
2. See the blazing Yule before us —Fa la la
Strike the harp and join the chorus —Fa la la
Follow me in merry measure —Fa la la
While I tell of Christmas treasure —Fa la la
3. Fast away the old year passes —Fa la la
Hail the new ye lads and lasses —Fa la la
Sing we joyous all together —Fa la la
Heedless of the wind or weather —Fa la la
4. Jingle Bell Rock
Jingle bell, Jingle bell, Jingle bell rock
Jingle bell swing and jingle bells ring.
Snowin’ and blowin’ up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, Jingle bell, Jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime and jingle bell time
Dancin’ and prancin’ up jingle bell square
In the frosty air.
What a bright time, it’s the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time, it’s a swell time,
To go glidin’ in a one-horse sleigh.
Giddy up, jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and mingle in a jinglin’ beat
That’s the jingle bell rock!
5. Santa Claus is Coming to Town
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout, I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town.
He’s making a list
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.
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout, I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town.
6. Rockin’ around the Christmas Tree
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree
At the Christmas party hop.
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop.
Rockin’ 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 senti-mental feeling when you hear
voices singing, “Let’s be jolly.
Deck the halls with boughs of holly”.
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday!
Everyone dancing merrily
in the new old fashioned way.
7. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
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
8. WINTER WONDERLAND
Sleigh bells ring – Are you list’nin’?
In the lane, snow is glist’nin
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight
Walkin’ in a winter wonderland
Gone away—is the bluebird
Here to stay is the new bird
He’s singin’ a song as we go along
Walkin’ 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 kiddies knock him down
When it snows, ain’t it thrillin’?
Though your nose gets a chillin’
We’ll frolic and play the eskimo way
Walkin in a winter wonderland.
9. We Wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas (3x)
And a Happy New Year
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Now bring us some figgy pudding (3x)
And a cup of good cheer
We won’t go until we get some
So bring some right here
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.
We wish you a Merry Christmas (3x)
And a Happy New Year
10. Let it Snow, Let it Snow, 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 was down low
Let it snow let it snow let it snow
When we finally kiss goodnight
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 slowing dying
And my dear we're still good-bye-ing
But as long as you'd love me so
Let it snow let it snow let it snow
11. Angels we Have Heard on High
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing over the plains
And the mountains in reply,
Echoing their joyous strains.
Glo------ri-a
In excelsis de-o
Glo------ri-a
In excelsis de-o
Shepherds, why this Jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Glo------ri-a
In excelsis de-o
Glo------ri-a
12. 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 (2x)
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven above
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ the Savior is born (2x)
12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS
On the first day of Christmas,
my true love gave to me:
a partridge in a pear tree.
2 turtle doves
3 French hens
4 calling birds
5 golden rings
6 geese a-laying
7 swans a-swimming
8 maids a-milking
9 ladies dancing
10 lords a-leaping
11 pipers piping
12 drummers drumming
