(You’ll be doing alright with your Christmas of white but I’ll have a blue blue Christmas)
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 mean a thing dear if you’re not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That’s when those blue heartaches start calling
You’ll be doing alright with your Christmas of white but I’ll have a blue blue Christmas
[ strings – vibes ]
And when those blue snowflakes start falling…

There’s an Old Christmas Card in an old dusty trunk
And it brings back sweet memories dear to me
‘Though it’s faded and worn, it’s as precious as the morn
When I found it ‘neath our first Christmas tree

Chorus:
I thrill with every word, every line
Guess I’m always sentimental ’round this time
Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer
It’s the memory of an Old Christmas Card

(Recitation)
You know, I don’t know why I get to feeling sentimental
about this time, every year
But every time I see a Christmas card,
I somehow can’t help reminiscing
About the very first Christmas that you and I spent together
What a beautiful Christmas card you gave me that year
Why I know you must have looked through thousands of cards
To find that wonderful poem that still brings a tear to my eyes

Repeat chorus

C is for the Christ Child born upon this day
H is for Herald Angels in the night
R means our redeemer
I means Israel
S is for the star that shone so bright
T is for three wise men they who travelled far
M is for the manger where he lay
A’s for all he stands for
S means shepherds came
And that’s why there’s a Christmas day
T is for three wise men…
And that’s why there’s a Christmas day

(Silver bells, silver bells)
(Soon it will be Christmas day)

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 ev’ry 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 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 scene)
(And above all this 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)…

(Happy Christmas, Kyoko
Happy Christmas, Julian)

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
A new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
(War is Over, if you want it, war is over now)repeat with verse
For weak and for strong
The rich and the poor ones
The road is so long
So happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let’s stop all the fight

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
(War is over, if you want it, war is over now) repeat with verse
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
And we hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
War is over, if you want it
War is over now

Merry Christmas

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.

Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked al ot like him
It’s not the way I had him pictured Santa was a much too thin
He didn’t come down the chimney so momma musta let him in
Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him

Well they thought I was fast a sleepin’ they thought I was tucked in bed
They never thought that I’d come a peepin’ or that I’d hear what was said
Santa put his arm around momma and momma put her arm around him
So if Santa Claus ain’t daddy then I’m a gonna tell on them
Santa looked a lot like daddy…

I never saw Dancer or Prancer I never heard the sleigh bells ring
I never saw the red nosed reindeer like they show on the TV screen
But he sure bought alot of presents so Santa Claus he must have been
Well he sure looked a lot like daddy and daddy looked alot like him
Santa looked a lot like daddy…

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
While 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.

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We’re happy tonight.
Walking in a winter wonderland.

Walking in a winter wonderland.

Snow falls over the trees
Still and calm is the sea
There is a hush o’er the land
Christmas is almost at hand
Peace alone reigns supreme
Like in some wonderous dream
You feel like newborn so grand
Christmas is almost at hand

Oh yeah yeah…
Last night I took a walk in the snow,
Couples holdin hands, places to go,
Seems like everyone but me is in love
Santa can you hear me?
I signed my letter that I sealed with a kiss,
I sent it off, it just said this:
“I know exactly what I want this year”
Santa can you hear me?
I want my baby, baby
I want someone to love me, someone to hold,
Maybe Maybe (Maybe, Maybe)
He’ll be all my own in a big red bow

Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year
And all I want is one thing,
Tell me my true love is here
He’s all I want, just for me
Underneath my Christmas tree
I’ll be waiting here
Santa that’s my only wish this year

Oh yeahh.. Yeahh Yeahh…
Christmas Eve, I just can’t sleep
Would I be wrong for takin a peek
Cuz I heard that you’re comin’ to town
Santa can you hear me?
I really hope that you’re on your way
With something special for me in your sleigh
Oh please make my wish come true,
Santa can you hear me?
I want my baby, baby
I want someone to love me, someone to hold
Maybe, Maybe (Maybe, Maybe)
We’ll be all alone under the mistletoe

Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year,
All I want is one thing
Tell me my true love is here
He’s all I want, just for me
Underneath my Christmas tree
I’ll be waiting here
Santa that’s my only wish this year

I hope my letter reaches you in time (oh yeah)
Bring me love I can call all mine (oh yeah)
Cuz I have been so good, so good this year, (oh oh)
Can’t be alone under the mistletoe,
He’s all I want in a big red bow.

And all I want is one thing

Just for me, underneath my Christmas tree
I’ll be waiting here,
