12. Up on the House Top 1. Away In A Manger

Up on the housetop Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, Reindeer pause, The little Lord laid down his sweet head. Out jumps good old Santa Claus. The stars in the sky looked down where he lay, Down thru’ the chimney The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay. With lots of toys, All for the little ones, The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, Christmas joys. But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes. Ho, ho, ho! I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky Who wouldn’t go! And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh. Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go! Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay Up on the housetop, Close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Click, click, click, Bless all the dear children in thy tender care, Down thru’ the chimney And take us to heaven, to live with Thee there. With good Saint Nick.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, On the _____ day of Christmas Fa la la la la, la la la la. my true love sent to me… ‘Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la, la la la la. A partridge in a pear tree.

10. Santa Claus is Coming to Town 3. Frosty The Snowman

Frosty the Snowman was a jolly happy soul With a corncob pipe and a button nose You better watch out And two eyes made out of coal You better not cry Frosty the Snowman is a fairytale they say You better not pout He was made of snow but the children know I’m telling you why That he came to life one day Santa Claus is coming to town There must have been some magic In that old silk hat they found He’s making a list, For when they placed it on his head Checking it twice, He began to dance around Gonna find out who’s naughty or nice. Frosty the Snowman was as live as he could be Santa Claus is coming to town And the children say he could laugh and play Just the same as you and me He sees you when you’re sleeping He knows when you’re awake Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump He knows if you’ve been bad or good Look at Frosty go So be good for goodness sake Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump Over the hills of snow You better watch out You better not cry Frosty the Snowman knew the sun was hot that day So he said let’s run and we’ll have some fun You better not pout Now before I melt away down to the village I’m telling you why With a broomstick in his hand Santa Claus is coming to town Running here and there all around the square Saying catch me if you can

He led them down the streets of town Right to the traffic cop He only paused a moment when He heard him holler stop Frosty the Snowman he had to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye saying don’t you cry I’ll be back again some day 4. 9. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus, Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer Right down had a very shiny nose. Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer And if you ever saw him, Pullin’ on the reins you would even say it glows. Bells are ringin’, children singin’ All is merry and bright All of the other reindeer Hang your stockings and say your prayers used to laugh and call him names. ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight! They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games. Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus, Then one foggy Right down Santa Claus lane Santa came to say: He’s got a bag that’s filled with toys “Rudolph with your nose so bright, For boys and girls again won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?” Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle, Oh what a beautiful sight Then all the reindeer loved him So jump in bed and cover your head as they shouted out with glee, ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight! Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, you’ll go down in history!

8. Let It Snow 5. I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus

Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful. I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus And since we’ve no place to go. Underneath the last night Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! She didn’t see me creep down the stairs to have a peep; It doesn’t show signs of stopping, She thought that I was tucked And I’ve brought some corn for popping. up in my bedroom fast asleep The lights are turned way down low. Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy white; When we finally kiss goodnight, Oh what a laugh it would have been How I’ll hate going out in the storm! If Daddy had only seen But if you’ll really hold me tight, Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night all the way home I’ll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying, and, my dear, we’re still good-bying. As long as you love me so. Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

6. Jingle Bells 7. Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

Dashing through the snow Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, In a one-horse open sleigh Lean your ear this way; Over the fields we go Don’t you tell a single soul Laughing all the way. What I’m going to say, Bells on bob-tail ring Making spirits bright Christmas Eve is coming soon; What fun it is to ride and sing Now you dear old man, A sleighing song tonight. Whisper what you’ll bring to me; Tell me if you can. Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh, O Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.
