Frost is in the air.

Snowflakes everywhere.
Sing a song of winter,
Hear the sleigh bells chime.
Can you think of anything,
As nice as Christmas time?

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!


Tune:Jimmy Crack Corn
 Oh, ring those bells and turn around,
Ring those bells and turn around,
Ring those bells and turn around,
Christmas time is here!
 
Ring those bells and stomp your feet!
Ring those bells and stomp your feet!
Ring those bells and stomp your feet!
Christmas time is here!
 
Ring those bells and jump up high  -
Ring those bells and jump up high -
Ring those bells and jump up high -

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.

What a bright time,
It's the right time,
To rock the night away;
Jingle bell time is a swell time,
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh!

Giddy-up jingle horse pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock-
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling street
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell rock!


(German)O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter! (repeat)
Du grünst nicht nur, zur Sommerszeit,
Nein auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter!


(Translation) O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Your  leaves are so unchanging;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Your  leaves are so unchanging;
Not only green in summer time,
But also in Winter, when it snows.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Your  leaves are so unchanging!
 

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing
Ring ting tingle-ing, too.
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you!

Outside the snow is falling,
And friends are calling "Yoo Hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you!

Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up let's go-
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up it's grand,
Just holding your hand,
We're gliding along with the song
Of a wintry fairy land !

Our cheeks are nice and rosy
And comfy cozy are we,
We're snuggled up together like two
Birds of a feather would be.
Let's take the road before us,
And sing a chorus or two,
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you!
 

The Chipmunk Song:
Christmas, Christmas time is near,
Time for toys and time for cheer,
We've been good, but we can't last -
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast!
Want a plane that loops the loop,
Me, I want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait -
Please Christmas, don't be late.
 
 
I'm 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 snow.
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.
 

Tune: Ten Little Indians
One bell, two bells, three Christmas bells.
Four bells, five bells, six Christmas bells.
Seven bells, eight bells, nine Christmas bells.
Ten Christmas bells to ring.


Tune: I'm A Little Teapot
I'm a little pine tree- as you can see,
All the other pine trees are bigger than me.
Maybe when I grow up-then I'll be
A great big merry Christmas tree!


Tune: Where is Thumbkin"
Where is Santa? Where is Santa?
Here I am! Here I am!
Merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry Christmas
Ho Ho Ho! Ho Ho Ho!   


Tune: The Muffin Man
Oh, do you hear the Christmas bells,
The Christmas bells, the Christmas bells?
Oh, do you hear the Christmas bells
That ring out loud & clear?
Oh, can you see our Christmas tree,
Our Christmas tree, our Christmas tree?
Oh, can you see our Christmas tree?
It fills the room with cheer.
Oh, do you smell the gingerbread,
The gingerbread, the gingerbread?
Oh, do you smell the gingerbread?
I'm glad Christmas is here.
 

See all the presents by the Christmas tree.
Some for you and some for me.
Long ones,  tall ones,
Short ones, too.
And here is a round one
Wrapped in blue.
Isn't it fun to look and see
All the presents by the Christmas tree?

 
Tune: Farmer in the Dell
Christmas time is near.
Christmas time is near.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Christmas time is near.
 
It’s time to trim the tree.
It’s time to trim the tree.
Merry Christmas everyone.
It’s time to trim the tree.
 
It’s time to wrap the gifts.
It’s time to wrap the gifts.
Merry Christmas Everyone.
It’s time to wrap the gifts.
 
It’s time to hang the stocking.
It’s time to hang the stocking.
Merry Christmas everyone.
It’s time to hang the stocking.
 
Santa will soon be here.
Santa will soon be here.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Santa will soon be here.
