THE CHRISTMAS SONG.
Famous Christmas Folk Song.
* * * * *
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,
And folks dressed up like eskimoes.
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe,
Helps to make a season bright.
Tiny tots with their eyes all a glow,
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa's on his way.
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh,
And every mother's child is going to spy,
To see if reindeer really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety two.
Although it's been said, may times, many ways;
Merry Christmas to you!
[repeat]

Winter Wonderland.
Holiday Folk Song made famous by famous people like Perry Como, Robert Goulet, and Mitch Miller.

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,
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.
_______________________________________________________
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
and pretend that he's a circus clown.
We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,
until the all the kids knock him down.
_______________________________________________________
When it snows
ain't it thrilling,
Though your nose gets a chilling.
We'll frolic and play,
the Eskimo way,
walking in a winter wonderland.

HOLLY AND THE IVY.
1) The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the
wood
The holly bears the crown.
Chorus:
2) O the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet
singing of the choir
The holly bears a blossom
As white as lily flower
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
To
be our sweet Saviour.
