Jolly Old St. Nick

Jolly old St. Nicholas
Lean your ear this way
Don’t you tell a single soul
What I’m going to say
Christmas Eve is coming soon
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, broad and black
With your pack you'll creep
All the stockings you will find
Hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one
Mended at the toe
Jolly old St. Nicholas
Lean your ear this way
Don’t you tell a single soul
What I’m going to say
Christmas Eve is coming soon
Now, you dear old man
Whisper what you’ll bring to me
Tell me if you can
Johnny wants a pair of skates
Susy wants a dolly
Nellie wants a story book
She thinks dolls are folly
As for me, my little brain
Isn't very bright
Choose for me, old Santa Claus,
What you think is right
Jolly old St. Nicholas
Lean your ear this way
Don’t you tell a single soul
What I’m going to say
Christmas Eve is coming soon
Now, you dear old man
Whisper what you’ll bring to me
Tell me if you can
Whisper what you’ll bring to me
Tell me if you can

Jingle Bells
02:41
|
|||
|
Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob-tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight
CHORUS
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way!
O 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
He got into a drifted bank
And we… we got upsot
CHORUS
A day or two ago
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed as there I sprawling lie
But quickly drove away
CHORUS
Now the ground is white
Go it while you're yound
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song
Just get a bob-tailed bay
Two-forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And Crack! You’ll take the lead
CHORUS

Toyland

Toyland, toyland
Little girl and boy land
While you dwell within it,
You are ever happy there.
Childhood's joy land
Mystic merry toyland
Once you pass its borders,
You can ne'er return again.
When you've grown up, my dears
And are as old as I
You'll laugh & ponder on the years
That roll so swiftly by, my dears
That roll so swiftly by
Toyland, toyland
Little girl and boy land
While you dwell within it,
You are ever happy there.
Childhood's joy land
Mystic merry toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can never, never, never...
return again.

Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
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 old 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 will open and shut her 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 old Saint 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
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 old 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 old Saint Nick
Down through the chimney
With old Saint Nick

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
Over silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light
Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
When I am a seeker
I seek both night and day
I seek the Lord to help me
And He shows me the way
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
Our humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation,
That blessed Christmas morn
Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
He made me a watchman
Upon the city wall
And if I am a Christian
I am the least of all
Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne*?
CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my jo,
for auld lang syne,
we'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint-stoup!
and surely I'll be mine!
And we'll tak' a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
CHORUS
We twa hae run about the braes,
and pou'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit,
sin' auld lang syne.
CHORUS
We twa hae paidl'd in the burn,
frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
sin' auld lang syne.
CHORUS
And there's a hand, my trusty fiere!
and gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak' a right gude-willie waught,
for auld lang syne.
CHORUS
