  1. Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow

    Written by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne

    Oh the weather outside is frightful
    But the fire is so delightful
    And since we've no place to go
    Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
    It doesn't show signs of stopping
    And I've bought some corn for popping
    The lights are turned way down low
    Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

    When we finally kiss good night
    How I'll hate going out in the storm!
    But if you'll really hold me tight
    All the way home I'll be warm

    The fire is slowly dying
    And, my dear, we're still goodbying
    But as long as you love me so
    Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
  2. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

    Written by Ralph Blane and Hugh Martin

    Have yourself a merry little Christmas
    Let your heart be light
    From now on your troubles will be out of sight

    Have yourself a merry little Christmas
    Make the Yuletide gay
    From now on your troubles will be miles away

    Here we are as in olden days
    Happy golden days of yore
    Faithful friends who are dear to us
    They gather near to us once more

    Through the years we all will be together
    If the fates allow
    Hang a shining star upon the highest bough, oh
    And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

    Through the years we all will be together
    If the fates allow, oh
    Hang a shining star upon the highest bough, oh
    And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
  3. What God Wants for Christmas

    Written by Darius Rucker, Monty Criswell and Frank Rogers

    Old man playing Santa Claus
    Blew into town with old Jack Frost
    Now he's handing out candy canes and smiles for free
    People scurry with their lists
    Rushing around to buy those gifts that will
    End up wrapped up underneath that tree
    I'm sitting at this red light looking at a manger scene
    Watching snowflakes kiss that baby
    And it makes me think

    I wonder what God wants for Christmas
    Something that you can't find in a store
    Maybe peace on Earth, no more empty seats in church
    Might be what's on His wishlist
    I wonder what God wants for Christmas

    What do you give someone
    Who'd give His only Son?
    What if we believe in Him
    Like He believes in us

    I wonder what God wants for Christmas
    What might put a smile on His face
    Every bubble with no dust, the devil givin' up
    Might be what's on His wishlist

    I wonder what God wants for Christmas
    What kind of gift from you and me
    More sister, more brother, more lovin' one another
    Yean I wonder, I wonder what God wants
    By now we oughta know what God wants for Christmas
  4. You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch

    Written by Theodor “Dr. Seuss” Geisel and Albert Hague

    You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
    You really are a heel
    You're as cuddly as a cactus
    You're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch
    You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!

    You're a monster, Mr. Grinch
    Your heart's an empty hole
    Your brain is full of spiders
    You've got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch
    I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!

    You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch
    You have termites in your smile
    You have all the tender sweetness
    Of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch
    Given the choice between the two of you
    I'd take the seasick crocodile!

    You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch
    You're a nasty wasty skunk
    Your heart is full of unwashed socks
    Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch
    The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote
    "Stink, stank, stunk!"

    You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch
    You're the king of sinful sots
    Your heart's a dead tomato splotched
    With moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch
    Your soul is an appalling dump heap
    Overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable
    Mangled up in tangled up knots!

    You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch
    With a nauseous super "naus"
    You're a crooked dirty jockey
    And you drive a crooked horse, Mr. Grinch
    You're a three-decker sauerkraut
    And toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!
  5. Baby, It's Cold Outside (feat. Sheryl Crow)

    Written by Frank Loesser

    (Well it sure is chilly out tonight) Yeah, but it sure is warm by this fire

    (I really can't stay) But baby it's cold outside
    (I've got to go away) But baby it's cold outside
    (This evening has been) Been hoping that you'd drop in
    (So very nice) I'll hold your hands they're just like ice
    (My mother will start to worry) Beautiful what's your hurry
    (My father will be pacing the floor) Listen to the fireplace roar
    (So really I'd better scurry) Beautiful please don't hurry
    (Well maybe just half a drink more) Put some records on while I pour
    (The neighbors might think) Baby it's bad out there
    (Say what's in this drink) No cabs to be had out there
    (I wish I knew how) Your eyes are like starlight now
    (To break this spell) I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
    (I ought to say no no no sir) Mind if I move in closer
    (At least I'm gonna say that I tried) What's the sense of hurting my pride
    (I really can't stay) Baby don't hold out
    [Both:] Baby it's cold outside

    (I simply must go) But baby it's cold outside
    (The answer is no) But baby it's cold outside
    (The welcome has been) How lucky that you dropped in
    (So nice and warm) Look out the window at that storm
    (My sister will be suspicious) Gosh your lips look delicious
    (My brother will be there at the door) Waves upon a tropical shore
    (My maiden aunt's mind is vicious) Gosh your lips are delicious
    (But maybe just a cigarette more) Never such a blizzard before
    (I got to get home) But baby you'd freeze out there
    (Say lend me your comb) It's up to your knees out there
    (You've really been grand) I thrill when you touch my hand
    (But don't you see) How can you do this thing to me
    (There's bound to be talk tomorrow) Think of my life long sorrow
    (At least they'll be plenty implied) If you caught pneumonia and died
    (I really can't stay) Get over that old doubt
    [Both:] Baby it's cold outside

    (I've gotta get home) Aw, come on let it go
    (It's getting late) It's still early, it's only 11:30
    (Alright well maybe just one more splash) How 'bout a splash of...

    (I really can't stay)
    [Both:] Baby it's cold outside
  6. I'll Be Home for Christmas

    Written by Kim Gannon, Walter Kent and Buck Ram

    I'm dreaming 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 on the tree

    Christmas Eve will find me
    Where the love light beams
    I'll be home for Christmas
    If only in my dreams

    Oh, please, please have snow and some mistletoe
    And presents on the trees
    Oh, Christmas Eve will find me
    Where, where the love light beams
    I'll be home for Christmas
    If only in my dreams
    If only in my dreams
  7. O Come, All Ye Faithful

    Written by Frederick Oakeley and John Francis Wade

    Joyful and triumphant
    O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem
    Come and behold Him
    Born the King of Angels

    O come, let us adore Him
    O come, let us adore Him
    O come, let us adore Him

    O come, let us adore Him
    O come, let us adore Him

  8. Winter Wonderland

    Written by Felix Bernard and Richard B. Smith

    Sleigh bells ring
    Are you listening
    In the lane
    Snow is glistening
    A beautiful sight
    We're happy tonight
    Walking in a winter wonderland

    Gone away, is the bluebird
    Here to stay, is a new bird
    He sings a love song
    While 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
    To 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's a circus clown
    We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
    Until the other kids knock him down

    When it snows
    Ain't it thrilling
    Though your nose gets a chilling
    We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way
    Walking in a winter wonderland

    To face unafraid
    The plans that we've made
    Walking in a winter wonderland
    Walking in a winter, wonderland
    Walking in a winter, wonderland
  9. Candy Cane Christmas

    Written by Darius Rucker, Steve Leslie and Frank Rogers

    Tiny little boots covered in snow
    Apple cider warmin' on the stove
    Tinsel twinklin' everywhere
    Holly hangin' on the stairs
    It must be Christmas Eve

    Angels sittin' high upon a tree
    Watchin' over presents patiently
    Milk and cookies on a plate
    Santa Clause is on his way
    The kids should be fast asleep

    Sleigh bells are ringin' in their heads
    Twistin' like little tops in their beds
    Tryin' to sleep but it's no use
    With hoofs tap tappin' on the roof
    Peakin' out the window to see what they can see
    It's a Candy Cane Christmas
    Sweet as it can be

    The kids will wake up awfully early
    Cause they can't wait to see
    If Santa made it so they can say
    "Look what he brought me"

    Sleigh bells are ringin' in their heads
    Twistin' like little tops in their beds
    Tryin' to sleep but it's no use
    With hoofs tap tappin' on the roof
    Peakin' out the window to see what they can see
    It's a Candy Cane Christmas
    Sweet as it can be

    It's a Candy Cane Christmas
    Sweet as it can be

  10. Please Come Home for Christmas

    Written by Charles Brown and Gene Redd

    Bells will be ringing the sad, sad news
    Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
    My baby's gone, I have no friends
    To wish me greetings once again

    Choirs will be singin' 'Silent Night'
    Christmas carols by candlelight
    Please come home for Christmas
    Please come home for Christmas
    If not for Christmas by New Year's night

    Friends and relations send salutations
    Sure as the stars shine above
    But this is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
    The time of year to be with the ones you love

    So won't you tell me you'll nevermore roam?
    Oh, Christmas and New Years will find you home
    There'll be no more sorrow, no grief no pain
    And I'll be happy, happy once again

    Friends and relations send salutations
    Sure as the stars shine above
    This is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
    The time of year to be with the ones you love

    So won't you tell me you'll nevermore roam?
    Oh, Christmas and New Years will find you home
    There'll be no more sorrow, no, no
    No grief, no pain
    And I'll be happy, happy once again
    Oh, there'll be no more sorrow, no grief no pain And I'll be happy Christmas, once again
  11. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

    Written by Charles Wesley

    Hark the herald angels sing
    "Glory to the newborn King!
    Peace on earth and mercy mild
    God and sinners reconciled"
    Joyful, all ye nations rise
    Join the triumph of the skies
    With angelic host proclaim:
    "Christ is born in Bethlehem"
    Hark! The herald angels sing
    "Glory to the newborn King!"

    Christ by highest heav'n adored
    Christ the everlasting Lord!
    Late in time behold Him come
    Offspring of a Virgin's womb
    Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
    Hail the incarnate Deity
    Pleased as man with man to dwell
    Jesus, our Emmanuel
    Hark! The herald angels sing
    "Glory to the newborn King!"

    Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
    Hail the Son of Righteousness!
    Light and life to all He brings
    Ris'n with healing in His wings
    Mild He lays His glory by
    Born that man no more may die
    Born to raise the sons of earth
    Born to give them second birth
    Hark! The herald angels sing
    "Glory to the newborn King!"
    Hark! The herald angels sing
    "Glory to the newborn King!"
  12. White Christmas

    Written by Irving Berlin

    I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
    Just like the ones I used to know
    Where the tree tops 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

    I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
    Just like the ones I used to know
    Where the tree tops they glisten
    And children they listen
    To hear sleigh bells in the snow

    Oh, 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

    May your days, may your days
    Be merry and bright
    And may all your Christmas be white
