Snow

Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow
It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow
Snow, snow, I wanna wash my hands, my face and hair with snow
Snow... I long to clear a path, and lift a spade of snow
Snow, oh, to see a great big man entirely made of snow
Snow, where it's snowing all winter through
That's where I want to be
Snowball throwing, that's what I'll do
How I'm longing to ski through the
Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow
Those glist'ning houses that seem to be built of snow
Snow, oh, to see a mountain covered with a quilt of snow
What is Christmas with no snow?
No white Christmas with no snow
Snow...
I'll soon be there with snow, I'll wash my hair with snow
And with a spade of snow, I'll build a man that's made of snow
I'd like to stay up with you, but I recommend a little shut-eye
Go to sleep, and dream of snow, snow, snow, snow.

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 (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
They got Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen
Nothing can compare to that bright nosed reindeer in the air
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (reindeer)
Had a very shiny nose (what a shiny nose)
And if you ever saw it (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 (poor Rudolph)
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say (Santa came to say)
"Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won't you come 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

Frosty the Snowman

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
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
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 snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye, saying
"Don't you cry, I'll be back again someday"

Santa Baby

Santa baby, just slip a Sable under the tree for me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you, dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year, I could be just as good
If you check off my Christmas list
Santa baby, I want a yacht, and really, that's not a lot
Been an angel all year
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa honey, one little thing I really need
The deed to a platinum mine
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and checks
Sign your "X" on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing
A ring, I don't mean on the phone
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry, tonight

Silver Bells
02:55
|

|
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'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
Strings of streetlights, even stoplights
Blink of 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'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
Soon it will be Christmas Day

Winter Weather

I love the winter weather
Because the two of us can get together
There's nothing sweeter, finer
When it's nice and cold, I can hold
My baby closer to me
And collect the kisses that are due me
I love the winter weather
Because I've got my love to keep me warm
Take the summer, you can have a ball
I like the springtime, even the fall
But I guess I like the winter most of all!

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun to shine by day, and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way to say merry Christmas to you

Up on the house top, reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
(Oh-oh-oh)
Oh, who wouldn't go? (Oh-oh-oh)
Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with the good St. Nick
First comes the stocking of little Nell
Ol' dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that can open and shut its eyes
(Oh-oh-oh)
Who wouldn't go? (Oh-oh-oh)
Who wouldn't go?
Up on the house top, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick
Look in the stocking of little Bill
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
(Oh-oh-oh)
Who wouldn't go? (Oh-oh-oh)
Who wouldn't go?
Up on the house top, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick

Snowflakes whisper

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

Christmas in Killarney is wonderful to see
Listen to my story and I'll take you back with me
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

[Verse 1]
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should all acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne
[Chorus]
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne
[Verse 2]
And surely you will buy your cup
And surely I'll buy mine
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne
[Verse 3]
We too have run around the slopes
And picked the daisies fine
We've londoned many weary foot
Since auld lang syne
[Chorus]
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne
