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
And 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
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

We'll sing a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland

. . .



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 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 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
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

. . .


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.

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.

. . .


Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven and nature sing

Joy to the earth, the Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy

No more let sins and sorrows grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found
Far as the curse is found
Far as, far as the curse is found

He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love

. . .


I really can't stay
Baby, it's cold outside
I've gotta go away
Baby, it's cold out there

This evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry
Beautiful, what's your hurry?
My father will be pacing the floor
Just listen to that fireplace roar

Now really I'd better scurry
Sweetheart, what's your hurry?
Well, maybe just a half a drink more
Why don't you put some records on while I pour?

The neighbors might think
Baby, it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink?
No cabs to be had out there

I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

I oughta say 'no, no, no sir'
Mind if I move in closer?
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense in hurting my pride?

I really can't stay
Baby, don't hold out!
Oh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go
Baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no
But baby, it's cold outside

This welcome has been
So lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out that window at that storm

My sister will be suspicious
Gosh, your lips look delicious
And my brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Ooh, baby you're so delicious
Maybe just one little kiss more
Never such a blizzard before

Oh, I gotta go home
You'll freeze to the bone out there
Hey, lend me your coat
It's up to your knees out there

You've really been grand
I thrill when you touch my hand
But don't you see?
How can you do this thing to me?

There's bound to be talk tomorrow
Making my lifelong sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died

I really can't stay
Get over that old out
Baby, it's cold outside

It is kinda chilly
Just stay right here baby
You ain't gotta be nowhere
All right, you win, ha ha ha

. . .


(Ram Buck/Kim Gannon/Kent Walter)

I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love
Even more than I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back
I promise you

I'll be home for Christmas,
You can plan 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

I'll be home for Christmas,
You can plan 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

. . .


Out of all the reindeers
You know you're the mastermind
Run run Rudolph
Randolph ain't too far behind

Run run Rudolph
Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry
Tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph
'Cause I'm reelin' like a merry go round

Said Santa to a boy
Child what have you been longing for
All I want for Christmas is a
Rock and roll electric guitar
And then away went Rudolph
Whizzin' like a shootin' star

Run run Rudolph
Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry
Tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph
'Cause I'm reelin' like a merry go round
Run like it's stolen

Said Santa to a girl
Child what would please you most to get
A little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink, and wet
And then away went Rudolph
Whizzin' like a saber jet

Run run Rudolph
Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry
Tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph
'Cause I'm reelin' like a merry go round

Run run Rudolph
(Run run Rudolph)
Run run Rudolph
Run run run Rudolph
(Run run Rudolph)
Run run
Run run run Rudolph
(Run run run Rudolph)

Merry Christmas everybody

. . .


The First Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

Then they looked up and they saw a bright star
Shining off in the east beyond them far
And to the earth, oh, it gave a great light
And so it continued both day and night

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

Santa baby
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
Tat I haven't kissed
Next year
I could be
Just as good
If you'll 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
There's one thing
I really do need
The deed
To a platinum mine
Santa honey
So hurry down
The chimney tonight

Santa cutey
Fill my stocking
With a Duplex
And checks
Sign your X
On the line
Santa cutey
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 down
The chimney

Trace Adkins
"It's Christmas"

[No lyrics]

. . .


Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and every where,
Go, tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born,
Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and every where,
Go, tell it on the mountain. that Jesus Christ is born.

While the sheperds kept their watching,
Over silent flocks by night,
Behold through-out the heavens there shone a holy light,
Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and every where,
Go, tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born.

Down in a lowly manger,
The humble Christ was born,
God sent us Salvation that blessed Christmas morn,
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and every where,
Go, tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born,
Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and every where,
Go, tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born,
That Jesus Christ is born.

Oh Hallelujah x25

(Dudley Brooks/Hal Stanley/Irving Taylor)

Old Mr. Kringle is soon gonna jingle
The bells that'll tingle all your troubles away
Everybody's waiting for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is coming again 

He's got a sleigh full, it's not gonna stay full
Stuff that he's dropping every stop of the way
Everybody's waiting for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is coming again

He'll be here
With the answer to the prayers
That you made through the year
You'll get yours
If you've done everything you should extra special good
He'll make this December the one you'll remember
The best and the merriest you ever did have
Everybody's waiting for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is coming again

Old Mr. Kringle is soon gonna jingle
All the bells that'll tingle all your troubles away
Everybody's waiting for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is here again

He's got a sleigh full, and it's not gonna stay full
Got stuff that he's dropping every stop of the way
Everybody's waiting for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is here again

He'll be here
With the answer to the prayers
That you made through the year
You'll get yours
If you've done everything you should extra special good
He'll make this December the one you'll remember
The best and the merriest you ever did have
Everybody's waiting, they're all congregating
Waiting for the man with the bag


. . .


Please take down the misletoe
Cause I don't wanna think about that right now
Cause everything I want is miles away
In a snow covered little town
My momma's in the kitchen, worrying about me
Season's greetings, hope you're well
Well I'm doing alright
If you were wondering
Lately I can never tell

I know this shouldn't be a lonely time
But there were Christmases when you were mine

I've been doing fine without you, really
Up until the nights got cold
And everybody's here, except you, baby
Seems like everyone's got someone to hold

But for me it's just a lonely time
Cause there were Christmases when you were mine

Merry Christmas everybody
That'll have to be something I just say this year
I'll bet you got your mom another sweater
And were your cousins late again
When you were putting up the lights this year
Did you notice one less pair of hands

I know this shouldn't be a lonely time
But there were Christmases when I didn't wonder how you are tonight
Cause there were Christmases when you were mine

You were mine

. . .



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 in every 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 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 seen
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

Christmas Day
Silver bells
Silver bells
Silver bells

. . .


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 all 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
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 all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in hi-sto-ry

. . .



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 be the same dear, if you're not here with me

I'll have a Blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white,
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

. . .

Merle Haggard
"Jingle Bells"

[No lyrics]

Vince Gill & Patrick Williams

O Little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by.

Yet in the dark street 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 our King
And peace to men on earth...

. . .


Tonight, I waited but my heart is so cold
'Cause you never stay more than a minute, so I'm told
I know you're just doing your job
But what am I supposed to do?
When all I want for Christmas, darling, is to be with you

I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
But when I offer you some Christmas greetings
You just keep on walking, yeah

I'm not asking for a miracle, just a night
And if you just look in my eyes, you just might
There'll be no other woman who'll treat you like I can
(Come on over here)
I'll be your loving, darling, you'll be my loving man

Oh, I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
But when I offer you some Christmas greetings
You just keep on walking

I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
But when I offer you some Christmas greetings
You just keep on walking
(Keep on walking)

I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby

You just keep on walking
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby

. . .


Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good ol' Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho ho, who wouldn't know
Ho, ho ho, who wouldn't go

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. 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 know
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. 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 (ka-pow, ka-pow)
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't know
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick


. . .


Oh, Holy Night
The stars
Are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear
Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin
And error pining
'Til He appeared
And the soul felt
It's 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, Holy night
Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
Oh, Holy night

Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh night
Oh, Holy night
Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
Oh, Holy night

Tanya Tucker
"What Child Is This?"

[No lyrics]

. . .


By now in New York City.
There's snow on the ground.
And out in California.
The sunshines' falling down.
And maybe down in Memphis, Graceland's all in lights.
And in Atlanta, Georgia, there's peace on earth tonight.

Christmas in Dixie, its snowing in the pines.
Merry Christmas from Dixie to everyone tonight.

Its windy in Chicago.
The kids are out of school.
There's magic in Motown.
The city's on the move.
In Jackson, Mississippi to Charlotte, Caroline.
And all across the Nation, its a peaceful Christmas time.

Christmas in Dixie, its snowing in the pines.
Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight.
And from Fort Payne, Alabama..Merry Christmas tonight.

. . .


(Marks)

Rockin' 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 Bales of holly"

Rockin' around the Christmas tree, have a happy holiday
Everyone dancing merrily in the new, old-fashioned way.

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear,
Voices singing let's be jolly,
"Deck the halls with Bales of holly"

Rockin' around the Christmas tree, have a happy holiday
Everyone dancing merrily in the new, old-fashioned way.

They shut down the mine last summer, we're gettin' by on welfare
It's Christmas Eve, I'm walkin' home, not a dollar to my name
Night is almost on me, a night I'm almost dreading
No store bought gifts to open, but there'll be Christmas just the same

It's just another ho-omemade Christmas i-in Kentucky
Just odds and ends I fashioned with my hear-eart and with my hands
It's just another ho-omemade Christmas i-in Kentucky
Our fine and fancy homemade love, God's precious gi-ift from up above
Make up the homemade Christmas of this poor Kentucky man

There's a brand new Barlow knife with a shiny wooden handle
Gleamin' in the window down at Galen Johnson's store
My wide eyed little Billy Boy, his face pressed to the window
Too young for understandin' what it means to be so poor

It's just another ho-omemade Christmas i-in Kentucky
Just odds and ends I fashioned with my heart and with my hands
It's just another ho-omemade Christmas i-in Kentucky
Our fine and fancy homemade love, God's precious gi-ift from up above
Make up the homemade Christmas of this poor Kentucky man

Little Linda ain't no baby, hell she turns thirtee-een in April
She's been dreamin' about that dolly in the window for half her life
She's old enough to realise that it ain't never comin'
I'd damn near rob a bank to get that doll and Billy's knife

It's just another ho-omemade Christmas i-in Kentucky
Just odds and ends I fashioned with my hear-eart and with my ha-ands
It's just another ho-omemade Christmas i-in Kentucky
Our fine and fancy homemade love, God's precious gi-ift from up above
Make up the homemade Christmas of this poor Kentucky man

. . .


Hey, maybe I’ll dye my hair
Maybe I’ll move somewhere
Maybe I’ll get a car
Maybe I’ll drive so far that I’ll lose track
Me, I’ll bounce right back

Maybe I’ll sleep real late
Maybe I’ll lose some weight
Maybe I’ll clear my junk
Maybe I’ll just get drunk on apple wine

(chorus)
Me, I’ll be just fine and dandy
Lord it’s like a hard candy Christmas
I’m barely getting through tomorrow
But, still I won’t let sorrow bring me way down.

(repeat chorus)

Hey, maybe I’ll learn to sew
Maybe I’ll just lie low
Maybe I’ll hit the bars
Maybe I’ll count the stars until dawn
Me, I will go on

Maybe I’ll settle down
Maybe I’ll just leave town
Maybe I’ll have some fun
Maybe I’ll meet someone and make him mine

(chorus) 2x

. . .


(Amy Grant, Chris Eaton, Beverly Darnall)

Twinkling lights
A chill is in the air
And carols everywhere
Close your eyes, it's almost here
Candles and cards
And favorite movie scenes
The smell of evergreen
As special as it's always been
And I have a dream or two
Maybe they will come true

CHORUS:
Setting our hopes on a big snow tonight
We'll wake up to a world of white
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember
Light up the fire, play some Nat King Cole
Always sentimental and don't you know that
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember

I know it's true
Time doesn't stand still
Many things can change
But we know some things never will
The memories we share
The songs we always sing
The mystery of life
The hopefulness this season brings
And I have a dream or two
Maybe they will come true

CHORUS

. . .


(Silent night holy night)
Silent night holy night all is calm all is bright
Round young virgin mother and child holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night holy night all is dark save the light
See the eastern wise men bring gifts and homage to our King
Christ the Saviour is born Jesus the Saviour is born
Silent night (holy night) all is calm all is bright
Poorest dreams from heaven afar heavenly host sing hallelujah
(Christ the Savious is born Jesus the Saviour is born)
Silent night holy night wonderous dark lend Thy light
With the angels let us sing hallelujah hail the King
Christ the Saviour is born Jesus the Saviour is born.

(Mr. In-Between, Mr. In-Between)
(Pickin's mighty lean, Mr. In-Between)

Well, I'm too old for girls and I'm too young for women
I've looked all around and my hopes are a-dimmin'
I feel like a fish not allowed any swimmin'
And it makes a fella mean
To feel he's a part of the Lost Generation
I feel like a choo-choo that can't find the station
I work like a dog with no recreation
They call me Mr. In-Between

(Mr. In-Between, Mr. In-Between)
(Makes a fella mean, Mr. In-Between)

Got a hotrod Chevy with a twin carburetor
And I know a gal that's a real sharp tomater
And she's got a Daddy with a Caddy that'll date 'er
You see what I mean
Those sweet little things just set me a-droolin'
I'm too big for sodas and I'm too old for schoolin'
Too young for lovin' but I'm too old for foolin'
They call me Mr. In-Between

(Mr. In-Between, Mr. In-Between)
(Tries to live so clean, Mr. In-Between)

I feel like a sailboat kept in a bottle
I feel like an engineer that can't find the throttle
I'm too small to walk but I'm too big to toddle
And, Lordy, I'm turnin' green
To see all the men makin' time with the ladies
The high school kids at the show with their babies
While I run around like a dog with the rabies
They call me Mr. In-Between

(Mr. In-Between, Mr. In-Between)
(Better leave the scene, Mr. In-Between)
