Songs

Away in a Manger
 

  Away in a manger, no crib for his bed,
  the little Lord Jesus laid down his Sweet head.
  The stars in the bright 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 side until 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 fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
 

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
 
 
 

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
  Ohhhhh

  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
 

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
 

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
 

< font color="#FF6600">  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've bought some corn for popping
  The lights are turned way 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'll really hold me tight
  All the way home I'll be warm

  The fire is slowly dying
  And, my dear, we're still goodbying
  But as long as you love me so
  Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
 

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer
 

  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 drinkin' too much egg nog,
  And we'd begged her not to go.
  But she'd left her medication,
  So she stumbled out the door into the snow.

  When they found her Christmas mornin',
  At the scene of the attack.
  There were hoof prints on her forehead,
  And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back.

  Grandma go run over by a reindeer,
  Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve.
  You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
  But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

  Now we're all so proud of Grandpa,
  He's been takin' this so well.
  See him in there watchin' football,
  Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle.

  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?

  Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
  Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve.
  You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
  But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

  Now the goose is on the table
  And the pudding made of pig.
  And a blue and silver candle,
  That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.

  I've warned all my friends and neighbours.
  Better watch out for yourselves."
  They should never give a license,
  To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.

  Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
  Walkin' home from our house, Christmas eve.
  You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
  But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
