    Saginaw Michigan
    Composer(s): Bill Anderson; Don Wayne
    First release by: Lefty Frizzell - 1963
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I was born in Saginaw Michigan
    I grew up in a house on Saginaw Bay
    My dad was a poor hard working Saginaw fisherman
    Too many times he came home with too little pay

    I loved a girl in Saginaw Michigan
    The daughter of a wealthy, wealthy man
    But he called me that son of a Saginaw fisherman
    And not good enough to claim his daughter's hand

    Now I'm up here in Alaska looking around for gold
    Like a crazy fool I'm a digging in this frozen ground so cold
    But with each new day I pray I'll strike it rich and then
    I'll go back home and claim my love in Saginaw Michigan

    I wrote my love in Saginaw Michigan
    I said, "Honey I'm a-coming home, please wait for me
    And you can tell your dad I'm coming home a richer man
    I've hit the biggest strike in Klondike history"

    Her dad met me in Saginaw Michigan
    He gave me a great big party with champagne
    Then he said, "Son, you wild young ambitious man
    Will you sell your father-in-law your Klondike claim"

    Now he's up there in Alaska digging in the cold cold ground
    The greedy fool is a-looking for the gold I never found
    It serves him right and no one here is missing him
    Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan
    We're the happiest man and wife in Saginaw Michigan
    He's ashamed to show his face in Saginaw Michigan

    I Never Knew The Meaning Of Christmas Composer(s): Evan Rogers; Carl Sturken Performer(s): *NSync



    Fa la la, la la la la Fa la la, fa la la Fa la la, la la la la Looking back on childhood days I can't believe my foolish ways Thought that Christmas only came from a store Had to know what was there for me Underneath the Christmas tree I didn't know that there could be so much more But in all of the rush I was missing so much Girl, you made me finally see, yeah That I never knew the meaning of Christmas 'Til you came into my life I was lost in the dark 'til you opened my heart Like an angel shining bright I wished on a star and, girl, here you are Suddenly I realize That I never knew the meaning of Christmas 'Til I looked into your eyes Coming home for the holidays Seeing friends from around the way There was always something missing for me All the sleigh rides, caroling Didn't really mean anything Without that someone who can make it complete All the snow's falling down There is joy all around 'Cause, girl, your love has shown me the way And I never knew the meaning of Christmas (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 'Til you came into my life I was lost in the dark 'til you opened my heart Like an angel shining bright I wished on a star and, girl, here you are Suddenly I realize That I never knew the meaning of Christmas 'Til I looked into your eyes Fa la la, fa la la Fa la la, la la la la (Singing la, la la la, la la la la) La la la la Fa la la, fa la la Fa la la, la la la la (Singing la, la la la, la la la la) Fa la la la But in all of the rush I was missing so much Girl, you made me finally see, yeah That I never knew the meaning of Christmas (Never knew, never knew, never knew, knew, knew) 'Til you came into my life I was lost in the dark 'til you opened my heart Like an angel shining bright I wished on a star and, girl, here you are Suddenly I realize That I never knew the meaning of Christmas 'Til I looked into your eyes That I never knew the meaning of Christmas 'Til I looked into your eyes

    Sagapo
    Composer(s): Claude Lemesle; S. Lebel; Ch. Bruhn
    Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



    Ils vivaient d'air du large et de soleil
    Dans l'île bleue bénie des dieux
    Je suis venue lui prendre un peu de ciel
    Je suis passée on s'est aimés

    Sagapo dis-moi "je t'aime"
    Nous avons si peu de temps
    Pour un si grand amour
    Sagapo c'est un long poème
    Pour un petit mot sans illusion
    Et sans retour

    On s'endormait dans les couleurs du soir
    On s'éveillait pour s'épouser
    Nos cœurs battaient au rythme des guitares
    Et on chantait sans y penser
    {au Refrain}

    Va-t-il se taire
    Ce vent d'hiver
    Qui dit que tu
    N'existes plus

    Sagapo dis-moi "je t'aime"
    Nous avons si peu de temps
    Pour un si grand amour
    Sagapo c'est un long poème
    Pour un petit mot sans illusion
    Et sans retour

    Pour un petit mot sans illusion
    Et sans retour

    Performer(s): Celine Dion



    Ooh baby

    Listen up to what I gotta say
    I found true love and it's here to stay
    Chapel bells are gonna ring in May
    I met an angel on christmas day

    24th of December
    It was a cold and snowy night
    I can still remember
    Gazing at the stars and the moonlight
    Fell asleep on the sofa bed
    Dreams of Christmas in my head
    I awoke to my surprise
    There he was right before my eyes

    Listen up to what I gotta say
    I found true love and it's here to stay
    Chapel bells are gonna ring in May
    I met an angel on christmas day

    I was stuffing the stockings
    And hanging tinsel on the tree
    When i heard a knocking
    I opened the door in time to see
    Carrolers and silver bells
    I saw his face that's when i fell
    He was there bent on one knee
    Santa sent him just for me

    Listen up to what I gotta say
    I found true love and it's here to stay
    Chapel bells are gonna ring in May
    I met an angel on christmas day

    Yeah yeah

    I know this love will grow
    When flowers bloom in early spring
    I'll be his bride, I'll wear his ring

    If you're looking for a angel who
    Is gonna make your every dream come true
    Just write an letter saying Santa hey
    I need an angel next Christmas day

    Yeah ooh baby, oh oh

    Listen up to what I gotta say, babe
    I found true love and it's here to stay
    Chapel bells are gonna ring n' ring in May
    I met an angel on christmas day

    Listen up to what I gotta say
    I found true love and it's here to stay
    Chapel bells are gonna ring, chapel bells are gonna ring
    I met an angel on christmas day

    Listen up to what I gotta say

    True love and it's all day
    I met an angel on christmas day

    Heyheyheyeah
    On Christmas day

    I Like Life
    Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse
    Performer(s): Stratford Johns



    The Ghost of Christmas Present (G) and Scrooge (S)
    (G)
    Ebenezer Scrooge, the sins of man are huge!
    A never-ending symphony of villainy and infamy
    duplicity, deceit and subterfuge
    And no one's worse than Ebenezer Scrooge!
    Though man's a handy candidate for Hell
    I must admit life sometimes has
    its brighter side as well!
    I like life! Life likes me!
    Life and I fairly fully agree
    Life is fine! Life is good!
    'Specially mine which is just as it should be!
    I like pouring the wine and why not?
    Life's a pleasure that I deny not
    I like life here and now
    Life and I made a mutual vow
    Till I die, life and I
    We'll both try to be better somehow
    And if life were a woman she would be my wife
    (S) Why?
    (G) Why? Because I like life!
    (S) That's all very well for you but not for me
    I hate life
    (G) Scrooge, you're an even bigger fool than I took you for!
    Now you listen to me
    I like life
    Well, go on!
    (S) I like life
    (G) That's better!
    Life likes me
    (S) Life likes me
    (G) Good! Good!
    I make life a perpetual spree
    (S) Perpetual spree
    (G) Eating food
    (S) Drinking wine
    Thinking who'd like the privilege to dine me
    I like drinking the drink I'm drinking
    (G) That's better, Scrooge!
    I like thinking the thoughts I'm thinking
    I like songs, I like dance
    I hear music and I'm in a trance
    (S) Tra la la!
    (G) Oompapah!
    (both) Chances are we shall get up and prance
    (G) Where there's music and laughter happiness is rife
    (S) Why?
    (G) Why? Because I like life!
    (both) Where there's music and laughter happiness is rife
    Why? Because I like life
    See how much we like life!

    I Know What I Want For Christmas
    Composer(s): Charlie Black; Dana Hunt
    Performer(s): George Strait



    This the season for generosity
    A time to give and to receive
    My Christmas list consists of just one sweet dream....

    I know what I want for Christmas this year
    I hope my note got to Santa on time
    I’m a little bit nervous,
    It’s kind of a big thing I’m asking for
    I don’t know if I deserve it but, boy, if I get it
    I’ll never ask for anything more
    It shines, it’s new
    And it’s the one wish that I wish would come true
    This year for Christmas I just wanna be with you

    We can build a little fire
    We can sit and talk for hours
    We’ll just have fun
    You can tell me what you did
    Christmas morning as a kid
    And we’ll talk about all our Christmases to come

    And if I hang a little mistletoe in every single doorway
    I’m sure to get a kiss
    And is it too much to ask for a snowman kind of snow
    To complete this singular wish?
    It shines, it’s new
    I know what I want and nothin’ else will do
    This year for Christmas I just want to be with you

    This year for Christmas I just want to be with you

    I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day
    Composer(s): Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
    Performer(s): Harry Belafonte;
    and various other artists



    I heard the bells on Christmas day
    Their old familiar Carols play
    And wide and sweet the words repeat
    Of peace on earth good will to man

    I thought as now this day had come
    The belfries of all Christendom
    Had rung so long the unbroken song
    Of peace on earth good will to man

    And in despair I bowed my head
    There is no peace on earth I said
    For hate is strong and marks the song
    Of peace on earth good will to man

    Then pealed the bells more loud and deep
    God is not dead nor does he sleep
    The wrong shall fail the right prevail
    With peace on earth good will to man

    Saffron Dormouse:
    Pots and pans all spick and span

    careful Tom don't scuff up the floor
    please don't make me scrub it again today
    we're on our way to the ball

    Lizzy Bee:
    All day long I'm working like a slave
    but you'll never hear me complain
    in the sunshine or the rain

    Saffron Dormouse:
    I've been asleep all Winter
    and now the spring is here
    it's time for you to hear my song

    Lizzy Bee:
    (hope it's not too long)

    Saffron Dormouse:
    Every room is clean and bright
    now we'd better be on our way
    Tom make sure you've got everything
    lock the door and give me the key
    let's go to see the show at the ball

    Lizzy Bee:
    Back to work tomorrow, but tonight
    going to eat and dance 'till I fall
    at the feast and at the ball

    I Hate People
    Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse



    Scavengers and sycophants and flatterers and fools
    Pharisees and parasites and hypocrites and ghouls
    Calculating swindlers, prevaricating frauds
    Perpetrating evil as they roam the earth in hordes
    Feeding on their fellow men
    Reaping rich rewards
    Contaminating everything they see
    Corrupting honest me like me
    Humbug! Poppycock! Balderdash! Bah!
    I hate people! I hate people!
    People are despicable creatures
    Loathesome inexplicable creatures
    Good-for-nothing kickable creatures
    I hate people! I abhor them!
    When I see the indolent classes
    Sitting on their indolent asses
    Gulping ale from indolent glasses
    I hate people! I detest them! I deplore them!
    Fools who have no money spend it
    Get in debt then try to end it
    Beg me on their knees befriend them
    Knowing I have cash to lend them
    Soft-hearted me! Hard-working me!
    Clean-living, thrifty and kind as can be!
    Situations like this are of interest to me
    I hate people! I loathe people! I despise and abominate people!
    Life is full of cretinous wretches
    Earning what their sweatiness fetches
    Empty minds whose pettiness stretches
    Further than I can see
    Little wonder I hate people
    And I don't care if they hate me!

    Safety In Numbers
    Composer(s): Joe Macre; Rick Witkowski
    Performer(s): Crack The Sky



    There's so many people
    Going to the races
    They paint on their faces
    And smile
    They watch the days fly by
    And don't even ask why
    Meanwhile
    The world that surrounds them
    Looks whithered and half dead
    And even your own head's been there
    You feel the depression
    And join the procession
    Nowhere
    As you march in the madness
    You crawl with the sadness
    That you might not leave the parade
    While the drummers are pounding
    You hear this astounding voice say:
    "Don't fear
    Come here
    Don't cry
    Stand by
    There's safety in numbers
    And numbers don't lie
    Don't lie"

    As the troops keep progressing
    You notice you've fallen behind
    And you're calling in fear
    But they're just too caught up
    In the way they've been brought up to here
    You halt for a minute
    And consider this strange voice
    Could this be your choice to lead?

    You hold the depression
    And watch the procession procede

    As the stranger gets nearer
    His image gets clearer
    He calls out and you hear him say
    "You've issued a May Day
    And May will be home for the day
    So
    Don't fear
    Come here
    Don't cry
    Stand by
    There's safety in numbers
    And numbers don't lie
    Don't lie"

    To yourself when yourself is
    Telling you that you're all
    That you have so just listen to
    You

    So exit the madness
    And enter the gladness
    And you will become quite aware
    You can end the depression
    And join the procession somewhere
    And
    "Don't fear
    Come here
    Don't cry
    Stand by
    There's safety in numbers
    And numbers don't lie
    Don't lie"

    Feel the magic in the air Christmas is all around Somethin' about this special time of year A blanket of snow falls down from the sky Voices of angels Open our hearts so we can open our arms And we'll all join hands To celebrate the goodness That shines inside of everyone It must have been a part of some great design Guess it's Christmas time Seein' the face of the little boys and girls Singing their first "Noel" A sweet refrain heard all around the world A song of forgiveness, comforting peace A time to remember, what life really means (life really means) The important things (important things) And we'll all join hands To celebrate the goodness That shines inside of everyone It must have been a part of some great design Guess it's Christmas time... Guess it's Christmas time... Open our hearts so we can open our arms And we'll all join hands To celebrate the goodness That shines inside of everyone It must have been a part of some great design Guess it's Christmas time... It must have been a part of some great design Guess it's Christmas time... Merry Christmas

    Safe In My Garden
    Composer(s): John Phillips
    Performer(s): The Mamas & The Papas



    Safe in my garden
    An ancient flower blooms
    And the scent from its nature
    Slowly squares my room
    And its perfume means such
    That it's causing me to swoon
    Safe in my garden
    (Could it be, we were hot-wired? Late one night while very tired)
    An ancient flower blooms
    (They stole our minds and thought we'd never know it)
    And the scent from its nature
    (With a bottle in each hand, to late to try to understand)
    We don't care where it lands we just throw it
    (Slowly squares my room)
    Somebody take us away
    Somebody take us away
    Safe in my garden
    (Could it be we were hot-wired late one night were very tired)
    An ancient flower blooms
    (They stole our minds and thought we'd never know it)
    And the scent from its nature
    (With a bottle in each hand, to late to try to understand)
    Slowly squares my room
    (We don't care where it lands we just throw it)
    (Somebody take us away)
    And its perfume means such
    (Somebody take us away)
    That it's causing me to swoon
    (Safe in my garden)
    When you go out in the street
    So many hassles with the heat
    (An ancient flower blooms)
    No one there can fill your desire
    (And the scent from its nature)
    Cops out with the megaphones
    Telling people stay inside their homes
    (Slowly squares my room)
    Man, can't they see the world's on fire?
    Somebody take us away
    Take us away
    Safe in our garden
    An ancient flower blooms
    And the scent from its nature
    (Cops out with the megaphones, telling people stay inside their homes)
    Man, the world's on fire
    (Slowly squares our room)
    Take us away
    Take us away

    I Dream Of Christmas
    Composer(s): Brian May
    Performer(s): Anita Dobson



    I sit alone by the fireside
    And watch the old year passing by
    Down the street they're singing party songs
    You know Christmas always makes me cry

    I dream of Christmas I dream of Christmas
    Maybe my dreams will come true
    I dream of Christmas a merry Christmas
    I dream of Christmas and you

    And so tonight my thoughts are reaching out
    Though you're a million miles away
    My dream is strong enough to see me through
    Our love's forever and a day

    I dream of Christmas I dream of Christmas
    Maybe my dreams will come true
    I dream of Christmas a merry Christmas
    I dream of Christmas and you

    And once again the world is filled with joy
    I want to share it far and wide
    Your spirit fills the air and comforts me
    I know you're always by my side

    I dream of Christmas I dream of Christmas
    Maybe my dreams will come true
    I dream of Christmas a merry Christmas
    I dream of Christmas and you

    I dream of Christmas I dream of Christmas
    Maybe my dreams will come true
    I dream of Christmas a merry Christmas
    I dream of Christmas and you
    I dream of Christmas and you

    I dream of Christmas I dream of Christmas
    I dream of Christmas I dream of Christmas
    I dream of Christmas

    Sad-Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands
    Composer(s): Bob Dylan
    Performer(s): Bob Dylan
    and multiple other artists



    With your mercury mouth in the missionary times
    And your eyes like smoke and your prayers like rhymes
    And your silver cross, and your voice like chimes
    Oh, who among them do they think could bury you?
    With your pockets well protected at last
    And your streetcar visions which you place on the grass
    And your flesh like silk, and your face like glass
    Who among them do they think could carry you?
    Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
    Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
    My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
    Should I leave them by your gate
    Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?

    With your sheets like metal and your belt like lace
    And your deck of cards missing the jack and the ace
    And your basement clothes and your hollow face
    Who among them can think he could outguess you?
    With your silhouette when the sunlight dims
    Into your eyes where the moonlight swims
    And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns
    Who among them would try to impress you?
    Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
    Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
    My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
    Should I leave them by your gate
    Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?

    The kings of Tyrus with their convict list
    Are waiting in line for their geranium kiss
    And you wouldn't know it would happen like this
    But who among them really wants just to kiss you?
    With your childhood flames on your midnight rug
    And your Spanish manners and your mother's drugs
    And your cowboy mouth and your curfew plugs
    Who among them do you think could resist you?
    Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
    Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
    My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
    Should I leave them by your gate
    Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?

    Oh, the farmers and the businessmen, they all did decide
    To show you the dead angels that they used to hide
    But why did they pick you to sympathize with their side?
    Oh, how could they ever mistake you?
    They wished you'd accepted the blame for the farm
    But with the sea at your feet and the phony false alarm
    And with the child of a hoodlum wrapped up in your arms
    How could they ever, ever persuade you?
    Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
    Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
    My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
    Should I leave them by your gate
    Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?

    With your sheet-metal memory of Cannery Row
    And your magazine-husband who one day just had to go
    And your gentleness now, which you just can't help but show
    Who among them do you think would employ you?
    Now you stand with your thief, you're on his parole
    With your holy medallion which your fingertips fold
    And your saint like face and your ghostlike soul
    Oh, who among them do you think could destroy you
    Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
    Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
    My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
    Should I leave them by your gate
    Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?

    I Believe In Santa's Cause
    Composer(s): Buddy Church; Lew DeWitt
    Performer(s): The Statler Brothers



    Never heard a snowman talking
    Never seen a reindeer fly
    Nor seen a wooden soldier walkin
    Nor met Santa eye to eye

    Now there are those who don't believe
    In miracles or Santa Claus
    But I believe what I believe
    And I believe in Santa's Cause

    Never heard an Angel singing
    Nerver known a Scrooge to smile.
    But I have heard sleigh bells ring
    And light a spark in some small child

    For kids and tress light up at Christmas
    As well as preachers and our lawns
    And light a Santa way at Christmas
    I believe in Santa's Cause

    There's a Santa world at Christmas
    Turning to the world's applause
    So hang a bell for ole Saint Nick
    Cause I believe in Santa's Cause

    Now there are those who don't believe
    In miracles or Santa Claus
    But I believe what I believe
    And I believe in Santa's Cause

    It's Sad To Belong
    Composer(s): Randy Goodrum
    Performer(s): England Dan & John Ford Coley; B.J. Thomas; Sofia



    I met you on a springtime day
    You were minding your life and I was minding mine too
    Lady, when you looked my way
    I had a strange sensation and Darling, that's when I knew...

    That it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along

    Oh, I wake up in the night
    And I reach beside me hoping you would be there
    But instead I find someone
    Who believed in me when I said I'd always care...

    Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along

    So I'll live my life in a dream world
    For the rest of my days
    Just you and me walking hand in hand
    In a wishful memory...
    Oh, I guess it's all that it will ever be...

    I wish I had a time machine, I could
    Make myself go back until the day I was born
    Then I would live my life again
    And rearrange it so that I'd be yours from now on

    Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along

    Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along

    Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along

    Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along
    Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
    When the right one comes along

    I Believe In Santa Claus
    Composer(s): Dolly Parton
    Performer(s): Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers;
    The Countdown Kids; The Statler Brothers



    I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus
    I believe there's always hope when all seems lost
    I believe in Santa Claus
    I believe in Santa Claus I'll tell you why I do

    I believe that dreams and plans and wishes can come true
    I believe in miracles I believe in magic too
    I believe in Santa Claus and I believe in you

    I believe in family in country and in smiles
    I believe in turning negatives to positives in life
    I believe in looking farther up the farther down we get

    I believe when someone hurts us we should forgive and forget
    And I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus
    I believe that love should prevail at any cost and I believe in Santa Claus

    I believe in saying what you mean and meaning what you say
    I believe a better attitude can make a better way
    I believe in viewing life as a journey that we're on

    And lookin' at our troubles as another stepping stone
    And I believe that everything that it is what it's meant to be
    I believe there is a God somewhere although he's hard to see

    I believe I am so therefore I should do all that I can
    To be a better piece in the puzzle of God's plan
    And I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus

    I believe there's always hope when all seems lost
    I believe in Santa Claus
    Let the little children sing
    (I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus
    I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus)

    Let the whole world to sing with us
    I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus
    I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus

    Let the whole world to sing with us
    I believe in Santa Claus I believe in Santa Claus
    I believe there's always hope when all seems lost
    I believe in Santa Claus
