Composer(s): Justin Hayward

Do you remember long ago?
And how we loved when we were children
Let's be like children
This Christmas time

And if you say that you'll be mine
Then all the stars will shine around us
Love will surround us
This Christmas time

I don't need a reindeer
I don't need the snow
Tell me you love me
And I'm ready to go
Out of the darkness, into the light
This is the Christmas where we make it all right
Make it all right

I hear you talking in my dreams
Of nights of love and days of wonder
I still remember each Christmas time

So if you see me on the street
No need ask me what would please me
It's your love, believe me
This Christmas time
(Ahhhh, ahhhh)

I don't need a reindeer
I don't need the snow
Tell me you love me
And I'm ready to go

Out of the darkness, into the light
This is the Christmas where we make it all right

This is the season of beauty and light
Love, love, we can make it all right
Make it all right

Love, love we can make it all right
Yeah...
Love, love we can make it all right

'Cause all the world over, the people will sing
Yeah, the joy it can bring

It's Still Rock & Roll To Me
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
and multiple other artists



What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
"Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?"
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
"Welcome back to the age of jive
Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money"
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me 

What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
"Can't you tell that it's out of style?"
Should I get a set of white wall tires?
"Are you gonna cruise a miracle mile?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
You best bet's a true baby blue Continental"
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me 

Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'Cause it's always been the same old scene
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen 

How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
"You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers"
Next phase, new wave , dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me 

What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
"Don't you know that their out of touch?"
Should I try to be a straight 'A' student?
"If you are then you think too much
Don't you know about the new fashion honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money"
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

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 a Christmas Eve

I know that I should be sleeping
But maybe he's not far away
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! cha cha cha

Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
Oh! Where is Santa Claus?
It's Christmas Eve

Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
I look for him because it's Christmas Eve

I know that I should be sleeping
But maybe he's not far away
Out of the window I'm peeping
Hoping to see him in sleigh

I hope he won't forget to crack his castinet
And to his reindeer, say
"Oh Pancho, Oh! Vixen, Oh! Pedro, Oh! Blitzen"
Ole! Ole! Ole! cha cha cha

Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
Oh! Where is Santa Claus?
It's Christmas Eve

It's Christmas Eve
It's Christmas Eve
It's Christmas Eve
Alright, Mamacita 
I'll go to sleep now
It's Christmas Eve......

It's Somebody Else's Moon Above, Not Mine (aka Not Mine)
Composer(s): Victor Schertzinger; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Dorothy Lamour, Betty Hutton
and multiple other artists



It's somebody else's moon above, not mine
It's somebody else's night for love, not mine
A heart to someone else is a thing that melts
To me it's just a comic Valentine
Let somebody else's tear be shed, not mine
Let somebody else's nose get red, not mine
I like playing solitaire
But until I can draw a pair
It's somebody else's moon up there, not mine

Hey! Chingedy ching

It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching, 
(hee-haw, hee-haw) 
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la) 
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da) 

Santa's got a little friend 
His name is Dominick
The cutest little donkey
You never see him kick
When Santa visits his paisons
With Dominick he'll be
Because the reindeer cannot
Climb the hills of Italy

Hey! Chingedy ching

It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching
(hee-haw, hee-haw) 
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la) 
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da) 

Jingle bells around his feet 
And presents on the sled
Hey! Look at the mayor's derby
On top of Dominick's head
A pair of shoes for Louie 
And a dress for Josephine 
The labels on the inside says
They're made in Brooklyn

Hey! Chingedy ching
(hee-haw, hee-haw) 
It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching
(hee-haw, hee-haw) 
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la) 
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da) 

Children sing, and clap their hands
And Dominick starts to dance
They talk Italian to him
And he even understands 

Cumpare sing
Cumpare su
And dance 'sta tarantel
When jusamagora comes to town
And brings du ciuccianello

Hey! Chingedy ching
(hee-haw, hee-haw) 
It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching
(hee-haw, hee-haw) 
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la) 
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da) 

Hey! Dominick! Buon Natale!

It's So Hard
Composer(s): John Lennon 
Performer(s): John Lennon



You gotta live
You gotta love
You gotta be somebody
You gotta shove
But it's so hard, it's really hard 
Sometimes I feel like going down 

You gotta eat
You gotta drink
You gotta feel something
You gotta worry
But it's so hard, it's really hard
Sometimes I feel like going down 

But when it's good
It's really good
And when I hold you in my arms baby
Sometimes I feel like going down 

You gotta run
You gotta hide
You gotta keep your woman satisfied
But it's so hard, it's really hard
Sometimes I feel like going down 

It's So Easy!

It's so easy to fall in love
It's so easy to fall in love
People tell me love's for fools
So here I go breaking all of the rules
It seems so easy (seems so easy, seems so easy)
Umm-hmm so doggone easy (doggone easy, doggone easy)
Umm-hmm, it seems so easy (seems so easy, seems so easy, seems so easy)
Where you're concerned my heart learned
It's so easy to fall in love
It's so easy to fall in love

It's so easy to fall in love
It's so easy to fall in love
Look into your heart and see
What your love book has set apart for me
It seems so easy (seems so easy, seems so easy)
Umm-hmm so doggone easy (doggone easy, doggone easy)
Umm-hmm, it seems so easy (seems so easy, seems so easy, seems so easy)
Where you're concerned my heart learned
It's so easy to fall in love
It's so easy to fall in love

Do You Know It's Christmas?
Composer(s): Paul Gentry - Rhesa Siregar - Larry Holder - Elton Smith



Do you feel a crispness in the air?
Autumn's past, yet something more is there
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The joyful, loving season we all share

Lights that line the street are dancing bright
Stirring special feelings with the sight
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The stars above are shining bright tonight

Oh, the winter's come to the meadow lands
As we're gazing out the windows of our home
Watching snowflakes fall in the starlit night
Reflecting all God's love that shines inside

We cherish every moment on this special day
This time's a gift from God
Let's share it with everyone along the way

Hear the church bells sound through the peaceful town
Awakening God's Spirit in each soul
As the children play on this Christmas Day
We are thankful for the joy we've come to know

Lights that line the street are dancing bright
Stirring special feelings with the sight
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The stars above are shining bright tonight

Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The stars above are shining bright tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight

It's Raining Today
Composer(s): Scott Walker
First release by: Scott Walker - 1969
Covered by: Susanna & The Magical Orch. - 2006



It's raining today 
and I'm just about to forget the train window girl 
That wonderful day we met 
She smiles through the smoke from my cigarette 
It's raining today 
But once there was summer and you 
And dark little rooms 
And sleep in late afternoons 
Those moments descend on my windowpane 

I've hung around here too long 
Listenin' to the old landlady's hard-luck stories 
You out of me me out of you 
We go like lovers 
To replace the empty space 
Repeat our dreams to someone new 

It's raining today 
And I watch the cellophane streets 
No hang-ups for me 
'Cause hang-ups need company 
The street corner girl's a cold trembling leaf 
It's raining today 
It's raining today 

Do You Hear What I Hear?

Said the night wind to the little lamb 
Do you see what I see? 
'Way up in the sky, little lamb 
Do you see what I see? 

A star, a star 
Dancing in the night 
With a tail as 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 thru the sky, shepherd boy 
Do you hear what I hear? 

A song, a song 
High above the tree 
With a voice as big as the sea 
With a voice as big as the sea 

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king 
Do you know what I know? 
In your palace warm, mighty king 
Do you know what I know? 

A Child, a Child 
Shivers in the cold 
Let us bring Him silver and gold 
Let us bring Him silver and gold 

Said the king to the people ev'rywhere 
Listen to what I say! 
Pray for peace, people ev'rywhere 
Listen to what I say! 

The Child, the Child 
Sleeping in the night 
He will bring us goodness and light 
He will bring us goodness and light

Do They Know It's Christmas?
Composer(s): Bob Geldof - Midge Ure
Performer(s): Band Aid
and multiple other artists



It's Christmastime; there's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
But say a prayer to pray for the other ones
At Christmastime

It's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Oh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Here's to you, raise a glass for ev'ryone
Here's to them, underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world
Feed the world

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again

Hi - Hi! We're your Weather Girls - Ah-huh -
And have we got news for you - You better listen!
Get ready, all you lonely girls
and leave those umbrellas at home - Alright! 

Humidity is rising - Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, the street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men

It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Every Specimen!
Tall, blonde, dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too
She took off to heaven and she did what she had to do
She taught every angel to rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Ame---------nnnn!

I feel stormy weather / Moving in about to begin
Hear the thunder / Don't you lose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed

God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too
She took off to heaven and she did what she had to do
She taught every angel to rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy
It's Raining Men! Yeah!

Ding-A-Ling The Christmas Bell
Performer(s): Lynn Anderson; Conway Twitty



Gather round and I will tell
The story of the Christmas bell
Who used to shine and shine and ring
And why they called him Ding-A-Ling

One of the famous jingle bells
Is what he was but then he fell
And broke his pretty harmony
And he began to ring off key

Now they call him Ding-A-Ling
Because he has a funny ring
And doesn't hit his note too well
Ding-A-Ling the Christmas bell

The other bells met secretly
And he heard one say in a real low key
He's sure to ruin our Christmas sound
And we don't want him hanging around

He overheard their secret vote
And walked away with a lump in his note
The saddest bell you've ever seen
The Christmas bell called Ding-A-Ling

They all call him Ding-A-Ling
Because he has a funny ring
And doesn't hit his note too well
Ding-A-Ling the Christmas bell

The snow was falling in the square
When the children found him there
And placed him on the Christmas tree
For everyone in town to see

As Christmas Eve came to the town
A blinding snow was coming down
And Ding-A-Ling heard someone say
Old Santa's sure to lose his way

The thought occurred to Ding-A-Ling
To ring as loud as he could ring
And when old Santa heard the sound
It guided him into the town

Now the children shout and sing
And everyone loves Ding-A-Ling
So everything has turned out well
For Ding-A-Ling the Christmas bell

It's rainin'
Been rainin' for a long, long time
I don't know when the sun is gonna shine
I'm stranded till the hurricane's through
But at least I know I'm stranded with you
The water is risin' in the town
Last report said more rain's comin' down

It's rainin'
The road is not no place to go
Too bad there ain't no late night show
Stranded till the hurricane's through
But at least I know I'm stranded with you
(Listen to the rain)

It's rainin'
Been rainin' for a long, long time
I don't know when the sun is gonna shine
I'm stranded till the hurricane's through
But at least I know I'm stranded with you
Stranded till the hurricane's through
But at least I know I'm stranded with you

Drip drop
Drip drop
Drip drop
Drip drop 

It's raining so hard
Looks like it's gonna rain all night
And this is the time
I'd love to be holding you tight
But I guess I'll have to accept
The fact that you're not here
I wish the rain would hurry up
And end, my dear 

It's raining so hard
It's really coming down
Sittin' by my window
Watching the rain fall to the ground
This is the time
I'd love to be holding you tight
But I guess I'll just go crazy tonight 

It's raining so hard
It brings back memories
Of the time
That you were here with me
Counting every drop
About to lose my top
I wish the rain would hurry up and stop 

I've got the blues so bad
I can hardly catch my breath
The harder it rains
The worse it gets
This is the time
I'd love to be holding you tight
But I guess I'll just go crazy tonight 

Drip drop 
Drip drop
Drip drop ...

May you beautifully rime
Your evetime song, ye singers

It's Probably Me

Performer(s): Sting
and multiple other artists



If the night turned cold and the stars looked down
And you hug yourself on the cold, cold ground
You wake the morning in a stranger's coat
No one would you see
You ask yourself, who'd watch for me
My only friend, who could it be
It's hard to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me

When you belly's empty and the hunger's so real
And you're too proud to beg and too dumb to steal
You search the city for your only friend
No one would you see
You ask yourself, who'd watch for me
A solitary voice to speak out and set me free
I hate to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me

You're not the easiest person I ever got to know
And it's hard for us both to let our feelings show
Some would say I should let you go your way
You'll only make me cry
But if there's one guy, just one guy
Who'd lay down his life for you and die
I hate to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me

When the world's gone crazy and it makes no sense
There's only one voice that comes to your defence
The jury's out and your eyes search the room
And one friendly face is all you need to see
And if there's one guy, just one guy
Who'd lay down his life for you and die
I hate to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me
I hate to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me
