By Gene Autry and Oakley Haldeman, 1947 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.

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 O the rising of the sun, And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir. The holly bears a blossom As [...]

By Johnny Marks, 1962 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 [...]

By Al Stillman and Robert Allen Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays, ‘Cause no matter how far away you roam When you pine for the sunshine Of a friendly face For the holidays, you can’t beat Home, sweet home I met a man who lives in Tennessee And he was headin’ for [...]

Lyrics: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Music: Johnny Marks, 1956 I heard the bells on Christmas day Their old familiar carols play, And wild and sweet the words repeat Of peace on earth, good will to men.

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 [...]

I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day. I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas Day in the morning. And what was in those ships all three On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day? And what was in those ships all three On Christmas Day in the morning? The [...]

It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bendingnear the earth To touch their harps of gold: “Peace on the earth, good will to men, From heaven’s all-gracious King.” To hear the angels sing. Still through the cloven skies they come With peaceful wings unfurled, And still their heavenly music [...]

By M. Willson It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev’rywhere you go; Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening once again With candy canes and silver lanes aglow. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, Toys in ev’ry store, But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be On [...]

By Eddie Pola and George Wyle, 1963 It’s the most wonderful time of the year. With the kids jingle belling, And everyone telling you, “Be of good cheer,” It’s the most wonderful time of the year. There’ll be parties for hosting, Marshmallows for toasting And caroling out in the snow. There’ll be scary ghost stories And [...]

By Kim Gannon and Walter Kent, 1943 I’ll be home for Christmas You can count 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

By Bobby Helms Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun Now the jingle hop has begun. Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square In the frosty air. [...]

By James Pierpont 1857 Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh Over the fields we go, laughing all the way; Bells on bob-tail 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 [...]

Jolly old Saint 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 [...]

Lyrics: Isaac Watts 1719 Music: George Handel 1742 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 [...]

By Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne, 1945 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 brought some corn for popping; The lights are turned way down low, [...]

You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch You really are a heel, You’re as cuddly as a cactus, you’re as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch, You’re a bad banana with a greasy black peel! You’re a monster, Mr. Grinch, Your heart’s an empty hole, Your brain is full of spiders, you have garlic in your [...]
