Used to laugh and call him names Ring-a-ling, hear them ring, They never let poor Rudolph soon it will be Christmas day. Play in any reindeer games City street lights, Then one foggy Christmas Eve even stop lights, Santa came to say blink a bright red and green, Rudolph with your nose so bright As the shoppers rush home Won't you guide my sleigh tonight? with their treasures. Then all the reindeer loved him And they shouted out with glee Hear the snow crunch, "Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer see the kids bunch, You'll go down in history!" 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.

The Christmas Song White Christmas

Chestnuts roasting on I'm dreaming of a white an open fire Christmas nipping at Just like the ones I used your nose to know Yule-tide carols Where the treetops being sung by a choir glisten And folks dressed up and children listen like Eskimos. To hear sleigh bells in the snow. Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Help to make the season bright With every I write Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow May your days be merry and bright Will find it hard to sleep tonight. And may all your Christmases be white.

They know that Santa's on his way I'm dreaming of a white Christmas He's loaded lots of toys With every Christmas card I write and goodies on his sleigh May your days be merry and bright And every mother's child is gonna spy And may all your Christmases be white. 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 many times, many ways Merry Christmas to you.
