Winter Wonderland

Felix Bernard - Dick Smith

© Bregman-Vocco-Conn Music, ASCAP

Sleigh bells ring are you listening
In the lane snow is glistening
It's a beautiful sight we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
And 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 when you're in town

Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
We'll 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 is Jim Ed Brown
We'll sing Pop A Top with Mr Snowman
When chapel bells are ringing all around

In the meadow we can build a snowman...
In the meadow we can build a snowman...

Yeah we'll face unafraid
That plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland

Santa Looked A Lot Like Daddy

Buck Owens - Don Rich

© Tree Pub, BMI

Well Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him
It's not the way I had him pictured Santa was much too thin
He didn't come down the chimney so mama must have 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 that I was tucked in bed
They never thought I'd come a peepin' or that I'd hear what was said
Santa put his arm around mama and mama put her arm around him
So if Santa Claus ain't daddy then I'm a gonna tell on him

Well Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him...

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 brought a lot presents so Santa Claus he must have been
Well he sure looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him.

Well Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him...
Well Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him...
Santa looked a lot like daddy or daddy looked a lot like him

I'll Be Home for Christmas

Kim Gannon - Walter Kent - Buck Ram

© Gannon And Kent Music, ASCAP

I am dreamin' tonight of a place I love even more than I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back I promise you

I'll be home for Christmas you can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe and presents under the tree
Christmas Eve will find me where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas if only in my dreams

Christmas Eve will find me where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas if only in my dreams
If only in my dreams

Away In A Manger

William Kirkpatrick - Martin Luther

© Robbins Music, ASCAP

Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing the baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
I love thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle until morning is nigh

Be near me Lord Jesus I ask thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care
And take us to heaven to live with thee there

Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

Penguin James Penguin

Frank Rogers - Brad Paisley

© Sea Gayle Music, ASCAP

Well the reindeer pull the sleigh and the elves make the toys
Those are the stories that are well known to all little girls and boys

But I've got another story that I bet you haven't heard
Did you know that Santa has a secret agent bird

He's Penguin James Penguin that dapper little guy
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux he's Santa's secret spy

Have you ever wondered how Santa keeps tabs
How he knows when you've been good how he knows when you've been bad

He's Penguin James Penguin that dapper little guy
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux he's Santa's secret spy

From an undisclosed location he's watching me and you
He's got satellite uplinks in his cufflinks yeah he sees everything you do

He's Penguin James Penguin that dapper little guy
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux he's Santa's secret spy

Not so very long ago Santa didn't need much help
But with more and more kids every year he soon got overwhelmed

He told the elves one Christmas we can't do this anymore
Then a knight in shining polyester waddled through his door

And it was Penguin James Penguin he was there to save the day
He had wireless and GPS outfitted on the sleigh

And Santa said Penguin won't you be my ears and eyes
How'd you like to help me run my SCFBI

He's Penguin James Penguin and now I guess you've heard
How Santa got his little Christmas Secret Agent Bird

364 Days To Go

Kevin Marcy - Brad Paisley

© Sea Gayle Music, ASCAP

Wrapping paper everywhere stacked up dishes but who cares
They can wait until tomorrow now it's you and me and this old couch

The Christmas tree in our living room fills the room with pine perfume
And colored lights dancing on the walls while Nat King Cole sings Deck The Halls

Don't you get the sense tonight that for now the world is right
And as another Christmas ends my mind drifts and once again
I'm thinking like a six year old only 364 days to go

Max got his bike I swear that kid he's got it parked right by his bed
Jenny sure loves her puppy too I'm not sure just who walked who

Thanks for my robe no that's OK it looks better on you anyway
What is it about this time of year that makes our troubles disappear

Cause don't you get the sense tonight that for now the world is right...

We can't avoid it no way around it before too long we'll be
Either back to work back to school or just back to reality

Don't you get the sense tonight that for now the world is right...
Be here before you know it

Silent Night

Franz Gruber - Joseph Mohr

© Educational Graphics Press, BMI

Silent night holy night all is calm all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night holy night shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar heavenly hosts sing Hallelujah
Christ the Saviour is born Christ the Saviour is born

Silent night holy night son of God love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face with the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus Lord at Thy birth Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Christ the Saviour is born Christ the Saviour is born

Silent night holy night all is calm all is bright...
Silent night holy night shepherds quake at the sight...
Silent night holy night son of God love's pure light...

Born On Christmas Day

Brad Paisley

© Sea Gayle Music, ASCAP

It was a cold and dark December night but a star still lit the sky
Away in a manger you heard a baby cry
It was the cry of the son of God a little baby boy
Born in that manger to bring the world joy

So hush up little baby you know not what you'll do
You'll bring the world peace and love and teach them while you do
You have nothing to fear because you know God is with you all the way
That little important baby born on Christmas day

Many people soon gathered round that tiny run down barn
They knew not of what they saw
Then came three all dressed in fancy robes silks and furs
This was the first indication of the importance of his birth

So hush up little baby you know not what you'll do...

We expected a soldier to save us from our plight
All dressed in shiny armor ready for a fight
But instead he sent a little baby boy
All filled with love happiness to bring the world joy

So hush up little baby you know not what you'll do...
That little important baby born on Christmas day

Silver Bells

Ray Evans - Jay Livingston

© Famous Music, ASCAP

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 every 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 streetlights 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 the bustle you'll hear

Silver bells silver bells...

Silver bells silver bells soon it will be Christmas day
Soon it will be Christmas day

Kung Pao Buckaroo Holiday

Frank Rogers - Brad Paisley

© Sea Gayle Music, ASCAP

Well it's a Kung Pao Buckaroo holiday
Whatever you do watch what you say
If you're easily offended well that's OK

It's a completely non-offensive
And politically correct holiday
