I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas
-- writing credits go to John Rox, copyright 1950. It'due south included on a
record by "Joanie Bartel'southward Christmas Magic."
"I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
I don't want a doll, no dinkey tinker toys
I desire a hippopotamus to play with and savour
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, exercise you?
He won't take to use a dingy chimney flue
Simply bring him through the front door
That's the like shooting fish in a barrel thing to do
I can see me now on Christmas forenoon
Creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy, what surprise
When I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinosaurus
I only likes hippopotamuses [sic]
And hippopotamuses [sic] like me, besides
Mom says a hippo would eat me upward, only then
Instructor says a hippo is a vegetarian
In that location's lots of room for him in our two-car garage
I'd feed him there and wash him at that place and requite him his massage."

That mourns in alone exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel

In ancient times didst give the law,
In cloud, and majesty, and awe. Refrain

From depths of hell Thy people salve

And death's dark shadows put to flying. Refrain

Make safe the way that leads on loftier,
And close the path to misery. Refrain

To usa the path of noesis show,
And cause u.s. in her ways to go. Refrain

In ane the hearts of all mankind;
Bid Thou our sad divisions finish,
And be Thyself our Rex of peace. Refrain
I Heard The Bells On Christmas Twenty-four hour period
I heard the bells on Christmas Twenty-four hour period
Their old familiar carols play.
And wild and sugariness the words repeat
Of Peace on earth, adept will to men.
I idea how as the mean solar day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had ringlet'd along th' unbroken vocal
Of Peace on earth, good will to men.
And in despair, I bow'd my caput:
"There is no peace on earth," I said,
"For hate is strong and mocks the song,
Of Peace on earth, good volition to men."
So pealed the bells more loud and deep;
"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the correct prevail,
With Peace on earth, good will to men."
Do You Hear What I Hear?
Said the night current of air to the petty lamb,
"Do yous run across what I see?
Way upwards in the sky, little lamb,
Practise you lot see what I meet?
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail every bit big as a kite,
With a tail as big as a kite."
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,
"Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, shepherd male child,
Do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song high above the trees
With a voice equally big as the the ocean,
With a vocalism as big as the the sea."
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty rex,
"Do you know what I know?
In your palace warm, mighty male monarch,
Do y'all know what I know?
A Child, a Kid shivers in the cold--
Let us bring him silver and golden,
Let united states bring him silver and golden."
Said the king to the people everywhere,
"Heed to what I say!
Pray for peace, people, everywhere,
Listen to what I say!
The Child, the Child sleeping in the dark
He will bring us goodness and light,
He will bring us goodness and calorie-free."
The Holly And The Ivy
The holly and the ivy,
When they are both total grown,
Of all trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown:
O, the ascent of the sun,
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ,
Sugariness singing in the choir.
The holly bears a blossom,
Equally white equally lily menses'r,
And Mary diameter sweet Jesus Christ,
To be our beloved Saviour: Refrain
The holly bears a berry,
As ruby-red as any blood,
And Mary diameter sugariness Jesus Christ,
To do poor sinners good: Refrain
The holly bears a prickle,
As sharp as whatever thorn,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
On Christmas Day in the morn: Refrain
The holly bears a bawl,
As biting equally the gall,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
For to redeem us all: Refrain
The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown: Refrain

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer
Irish Rovers
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our firm Christmas eve.
You can say there'south no such matter equally Santa,
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
She'd been drinkin' too much egg nog,
And we'd begged her not to go.
But she'd left her medication,
So she stumbled out the door into the snow.
When they institute her Christmas mornin',
At the scene of the attack.
At that place were hoof prints on her brow,
And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back.
Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
Walkin' home from our firm Christmas eve.
You lot can say there'south no such thing as Santa,
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
At present were all and so proud of Grandpa,
He'due south been takin' this and then well.
See him in there watchin' football game,
Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle.
It'southward non Christmas without Grandma.
All the family's dressed in black.
And we just can't help but wonder:
Should nosotros open up her gifts or send them back?
Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
Walkin' habitation from our house Christmas eve.
You tin say there's no such thing equally Santa,
Only as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
Now the goose is on the table
And the pudding made of fig.
And a bluish and argent candle,
That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.
I've warned all my friends and neighbours.
Better watch out for yourselves."
They should never give a license,
To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.
Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
Walkin' home from our house, Christmas eve.
Yous tin say there's no such matter as Santa,
Only as for me and Granddaddy, we believe.
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus
I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe final dark.
She didn't see me creep
Downward the stairs to have a peep;
She thought that I was tucked up in my chamber fast asleep.
Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white;
Oh, what a express mirth it would have been
If Daddy had merely seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus concluding nighttime.
Over the River and Through the Woods
Over the river and through the forest
To Grandmother'southward firm we get.
The horse knows the fashion to carry the sleigh
Through white and drifted snow.
Over the river and through the woods,
Oh, how the wind does blow.
It stings the toes and bites the nose
Every bit over the ground nosotros become.
Over the river and through the woods
To have a full day of play.
Oh, hear the bells ringing ting-a-ling-ling,
For it is Christmas Solar day.
Over the river and through the woods,
Trot fast my dapple gray;
Spring o'er the footing but like a hound,
For this is Christmas Day.
Over the river and through the woods
And straight through the barnyard gate.
It seems that nosotros get so dreadfully boring;
It is so difficult to wait.
Over the river and through the forest,
Now Grandma'southward cap I spy.
Hurrah for fun; the pudding's done;
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie.
A Visit from St.Nicholas
by Cloudless C. Moore
Downward the chimney St.Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in furs from his caput to his human foot,
and his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a pedlar merely opening his pack.
His optics how they twinkled! His dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his olfactory organ similar a cherry;
His droll trivial mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his caput like a wreath.
He had a broad confront and a petty round belly
That shook, when he laughed, similar a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump - a right jolly old elf -
And laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself.
It'southward Outset to Wait Like Christmas
Information technology'due south beginning to expect a lot similar Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five-and-x, glistening in one case once again
With candy canes and silvery lanes aflame.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Toys in ev'ry store,
Only the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will exist
On your own front door.
A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben;
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the promise of Janice and Jen;
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for schoolhouse to start once again.
It's outset to look a lot similar Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
In that location's a tree in the K Hotel, one in the park likewise,
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.
It's starting time to look a lot like Christmas;
Shortly the bells volition start,
And the matter that will make them ring is the carol that you lot sing
Right inside your middle.
Ding Dong Merrily on High
Ding Dong! merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing
Ding, dong! verily the heaven
Is riv'n with angel singing
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis
E'en then here below, beneath
Let steeple bells exist swungen
And i-o, i-o, i-o
By priest and people be sungen
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis
Pray ye dutifully prime
Your matin chinkle, ye ringers
May ye beautifully rime
Your evetime vocal, ye singers
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis
Frosty the Snow Man
Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipage and a button nose
and two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow but the children
know how he came to life ane twenty-four hour period
There must have been some magic in that
former silk chapeau they found
For when they placed it on his head
he began to dance effectually
O Frosty the snowman
was alive every bit he could be
And the children say he could laugh
and play merely the same every bit you and me
Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Await at Frosty go
Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
Frosty the snowman knew
the lord's day was hot that day
And then he said
"Let's run and
we'll have some fun
at present earlier I melt away
" Down to the village
with a broomstick in his paw
Running here and there all
effectually the foursquare maxim
Take hold of me if you can
He led them downwards the streets of town
right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
he heard him holler "Cease!"
For Frosty the snow man
had to hurry on his way
Simply he waved goodbye proverb
"Don't yous cry
I'll exist back again some day
" Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
White Christmas
Irving Berlin 1942
I'thousand dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snowfall
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days exist merry and vivid
And may all your Christmases be white

Get tell information technology on the mount,
Over the hills and everywhere,
Go tell it on the mount,
Our Jesus Christ is born.
Jingle Bells
James Pierpont - 1857
Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open up sleigh
Over the fields we go, laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tail ring, making spirits vivid
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song this evening
Chorus
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh
A twenty-four hour period or ii ago, I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright, was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seemed his lot;
He got into a drifted bank and we got upsot
(Chorus)
A 24-hour interval or 2 ago, the story I must tell
I went out on the snow, and on my dorsum I roughshod;
A gent was riding by, in a ane-horse open sleigh
He laughed every bit there I sprawling prevarication but quickly drove away
(Chorus)
Now the ground is white, go it while you're immature
Take the girls tonight, and sing this sleighing song;
Only get a bob-tailed bay, two-forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack! y'all'll take the atomic number 82
(Chorus)
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas
Jolly old Saint Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way!
Don't you tell a unmarried soul
What I'thou going to say;
Christmas Eve is coming soon;
Now, you dearest old man,
Whisper what yous'll bring to me;
Tell me if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve,
When I'thou fast asleep,
Downwards the chimney broad and blackness,
With your pack you'll creep;
All the stockings y'all will discover
Hanging in a row;
Mine will be the shortest one,
You'll be certain to know.
Johnny wants a pair of skates;
Susy wants a dolly;

We Three Kings of Orient Are
[John H. Hopkins, Jr., 1857]
We three kings of Orient are
Begetting gifts nosotros traverse distant.
Field and fountain, moor and mount,
Post-obit yonder star.
Chorus
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, however proceeding,
Guide united states of america to thy perfect Calorie-free.
Built-in a king on Bethlehem's plain,
Gold I bring to crown Him once more,
King forever, ceasing never
Over u.s.a. all to reign.
(Chorus)
Frankincense to offer have I.
Incense owns a Deity nigh.
Prayer and praising all men raising,
Worship Him, God on high.
(Chorus)
Myrrh is mine: Its biting perfume
Breaths a life of gathering gloom.
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding dying,
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
(Chorus)
Glorious now behold Him arise,
King and God and Sacrifice.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Sounds through the earth and skies.
(Chorus)
All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth
Every trunk stops
and stares at me
These 2 teeth are
gone as yous tin see
I don't know just who
to blame for this ending!
Only my one wish on Christmas Eve
is as plain as it can be!
All I want for Christmas
is my two front end teeth,
my two front teeth,
encounter my 2 forepart teeth!
Gee, if I could only
take my two front teeth,
then I could with you
"Merry Christmas."
It seems and so long since I could say,
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd exist,
if I could only whistle (thhhh)
All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth.
Gee, if I could but
accept my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"
Blue Christmas
B.Hayes, J.Johnson (c) 1948
I'll have a blue Christmas without you;
I'll be so blue thinking about you.
Decorations of red

I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain;
And when that blue heartache starts hurting,
You'll be doing all correct
with your Christmas of white,
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas.

- Of peace on earth, good volition to men.

- The belfries of all Christendom
- Had rolled along thursday' unbroken song
- Of peace on world, good will to men.
- And in despair I bowed my head
- "At that place is no peace on earth," I said,
- "For hate is strong and mocks the song
- Of peace on earth, proficient will to men."
- Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
- "God is not dead, nor doth He slumber;
- The wrong shall fail, the correct prevail
- With peace on earth, good volition to men."
- Till ringing, singing on its fashion
- The world revolved from night to 24-hour interval,
- A voice, a chime, a dirge sublime
- Of peace on earth, good will to men.
