Mamacita!
Mamacita! Donde esta Santa Claus? Donde esta Santa Claus?
And the toys that he will leave.
Mamacita, oh, where is Santa Claus? I look for him because it's Christmas Eve.
I know that I should be a-sleeping, But maybe he's not far away,
So out of the window I'm peeping, Hoping to see him in his sleigh.
I hope he won't forget to clack his castinet, And to his reindeer, say,
"Oh Pancho, Oh! Vixen, Oh! Pedro, Oh! Blitzen," Ole! Ole! Ole!
Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus? Oh, where is Santa Claus?
It's Christmas Eve.
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle-belling, And everyone telling you, "Be of good cheer"
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and hap- happy meetings When friends come to call
It's the hap- happiest season of all
There'll be parties for hosting, Marshmallows for toasting, And caroling out in the snow
There'll be scary ghost stories, And tales of the glories, of Holidays long, long ago
Sleigh Ride Medley
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring-ting-tingling 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.

I love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, I love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, I love those J-I-N-G-L-E
B-E double L S, I love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells
**************
Snowflakes falling all over town, slipping sliding, everybody rushing ‘round
There’s an icy chill in the air telling us that winter’s really here. Oh!
I’m so glad that winter is here! Grab your sled and let out a happy cheer, because it’s
Snowing, blowing, all through the day. Winter winds will surely blow all your cares away!
Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh,
O’er the fields we go, laughing all the way
Bells on bobtail ring, making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight. Oh!
Jingle Bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!
Jingle Bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh! Hey!
Sixty Million Snowflakes
When I woke up this morning, the snow was falling down.
The white stuff was everywhere! I couldn’t see the ground.
I couldn’t wait to bundle up and go outside to see
Just how many snowflakes would land on me!
** There must be one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, Six------ty million snowflakes
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, Six------ty million snowflakes
Sixty million snowflakes falling from the sky! If the trees and ground can catch them so can I!
Sixty million snowflakes, all I want is one!
One little snowflake on my tongue!
(repeat)
I wore my coat and hat as I walked around outside.
My footprints looked like craters that were really deep and wide!
The snow was swirling ‘round! I stuck my tongue out to the sky!
(spoken:) (You’ll never guess what happened! I got snowflakes in my eye!)
While on my way to school I acted like a tree
In hopes that just one snowflake would want to land on me
This time I shut my eyes and then stuck out my frozen tongue!
(spoken:) (I would have caught a snowflake if the school bell hadn’t rung)
Softly the snow
Softly the snowflakes fall to the ground
Twisting and twirling and dancing around
The world is blanketed with drifts of white
Oh what a calm and peaceful sight
Softly the snowflakes fall to the ground
They never make a sound
Still, Still, Still, as the snow gently falls all around
The world is calm and all is bright
On this peaceful, silent night
Still, Still, Still, as the snow gently falls all around.
Everybody loves a lover
Everybody loves a lover, I’m a lover everybody loves me
Anyhow that’s how I feel, Wow I feel, just like a Polyanna
I should worry, not for nothin’, everybody loves me yes they do
And I love everybody, since I fell in love with you.
Who’s the most popular personality, I can’t help thinking its no one else but me
Gee I feel just about ten feet tall, Havin’ a ball, guess you might call me a Poyanna
I should worry, not for nothin’, everybody loves me yes they do
And I love everybody, since I fell in love with you.
Ngozo Saba Kwanzaa
In late December when snowflakes fly, and chilly winds come howling by
We celebrate a holiday to let us know, of Africa a long, long time ago, Of Africa long ago
Umoja, kujichagulia, ujima, ujamaa, nia, Kuumba, Imani
These are the seven principles.
Ngoza Saba Kwanzaa, Mishumaa saba Kwanzaa
Glow my kinara, glow.
The seven days of Kwanzaa inspire me, I light my Kinara with my family
Each day we light a candle to help us see the pathway we follow to keep us free,
The pathway to keep us free.
Kindle the Hanukah Lights
Pray for peace the whole world through, And think about what we can do
To make a world where no one fights, As we kindle the Hanukah lights
Kindle the Hanukah lights
Kindle the Hanukah lights
Light the candles
Kindle the Hanukah lights
Dreidels spin and songs are sung, The gifts are given one by one
The story’s told again each night, As we kindle the Hanukah lights
What would you wish for if you could have one thing?
Would you want the joy that peace could bring?
Rockin’ around the Christmas Tree
Rocking around the Christmas Tree at the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see Ev'ry couple tries to stop
Rocking around the Christmas Tree Let the Christmas Spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie and we'll do some caroling
You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear -- voices singing
"Let's be jolly; Deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rocking around the Christmas Tree Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily In a new old fashioned way
The Changing Seasons
Round about autumn o round about fall
All the purple and yellows are climbing my wall
O Round about autumn o round about fall
All the scarlet this year is the loveliest I can recall
Round about winter, we’re waiting for snow
All the icicles glistening and lights all aglow
Oh round about winter, we’re waiting for snow
I can’t wait to go skating and sledding with friends that I know!
(3rd verse: All the treetops are glowing, the colors enthrall;
O the oranges and crimsons delight me, yes I love them all!)
