    The Christmas Riddle
    Composer(s): Peggy Lee - Stella Castelucci
    Performer(s): Peggy Lee



    Children, may I tell a riddle
    Of someone who's dear to you
    Maybe you will guess the answer
    Long before I'm through

    (Riddle, a riddle, oh, tell us a riddle)
    (Tell us a riddle, please do)

    Well, long ago there lived a bishop
    Who was such a kindly man
    All his life was spent in giving
    That was how it all began

    And they say he rode a white horse
    As he went from door to door
    Giving presents, sweets and good things
    Need I tell you any more

    (Riddle, a riddle, it still is a riddle)
    (Tell us, oh, please tell us more)

    Next the legend says, the children
    Would leave hay in a wooden shoe
    For the white horse he was riding
    Now you have another clue

    (You gave us a clue, you gave us a clue)
    (About hay in a wooden shoe)

    He has many another name
    In many another far off land
    But no matter what the language
    Every child will understand

    Well now, when you hang your stocking
    He was why that all began
    All the World has kept the custom
    Of this kind and saintly man

    (We've got it, we've got it, we just guessed the riddle)
    (We know how it all began)

    Yes, you know now 'twas Saint Nicholas
    For giving gifts, he was the cause
    Some have named him dear Kris Kringle
    Others call him Santa Claus

    And much like the sweet Dutch children
    Would leave hay in a wooden shoe
    Others leave some for the reindeer
    And give presents too

    (The riddle, the riddle, we guessed the riddle)
    (The riddle of dear old Saint Nick)

    The riddle of old Saint Nick

    I'd Rather Lead A Band
    Composer(s): Irving Berlin
    Performer(s): Fred Astaire
    and multiple other artists



    I haven't ambitions for lofty positions
    That wind up with the wealth of the land
    I'll give you the throne that a king sat on
    For just a small baton
    Providing you included a band

    If I could be the wealthy owner of a large industry
    I would say, "Not for me"
    I'd rather lead a band

    If I could be a politician with a chance to dictate
    I would say, "Let it wait"
    I'd rather lead a band

    My ev'ry care ceases
    I'm rich as old Croesus
    When I've got ten pieces
    In hand

    If I could have a millionairess with a whole flock of banks
    I would just whisper "Thanks"
    I'd rather lead a band

    Give me a band, yes sir
    And not a thing lesser
    To be that professor
    Is grand

    If Josephine had left Napoleon and climbed in my lap
    I'd say, "Go back to Nap"
    I'd rather lead a band

    A saxophone, a slide trombone
    A bass fiddle and a drum
    A guy at the piano who makes it hum
    A violin, a clarinet
    A hot trumpet and guitar
    And me with the baton and there you are

    Kick Out The Jams
    Composer(s): Michael Davis; Wayne Kramer;
    Fred "Sonic" Smith; Dennis Thompson; Rob Tyner
    Performer(s): MC5; and various other artists



    I'm gonna kick 'em out!
    Well I feel pretty good and I guess that I could
    Get crazy now baby
    And we all got in tune when the dressing room
    Got hazy now baby
    I know how you want it child
    Hot sweet and tight
    The girls can't stand it when you're doin' it right
    Let me up on the stands
    And let me kick out the jams!
    Kick out the jams
    I have to kick 'em out!

    Yes I'm starting to sweat, you know my shirt's all wet
    What a feeling
    And the sound that abounds and resounds and rebounds
    Off the ceiling
    You gotta have it baby you can't do without
    And when you get the feeling you got to sound it out
    Put that mic in my hands
    And let me kick out the jams!
    Kick out the jams
    I got to kick 'em out!

    [solo]

    So you got to get it up, you know you can't get enough
    Miss MacKenzie
    Well it gets in your brain and drives you insane
    It's a frenzy
    The wailing guitars, girl
    And the crash of the drums
    Make you wanna keep a-rockin 'til
    Morning comes
    Let me

    Zigeunerjunge
    ((French Version: Tzigane (Dalida))
    Composer(s): Hans Blum
    Performer(s): Alexandra



    Ich war noch ein Kind
    da kamen Zigeuner
    Zigeuner in unsere Stadt
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    kamen in uns're Stadt

    Die Wagen so bunt, die Pferdchen so zottig
    sie zogen die Wagen so schwer
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    und ich lief hinterher
    immer nur hinterher

    Dann kam der Abend, es wurde ein Feuer entfacht - la la la -
    und die Zigeuner, sie haben getanzt und gelacht - la la la

    Ein Zigeunerjunge, Zigeunerjunge
    er spielte am Feuer Gitarre
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    und ich sah sein Gesicht
    aber er sah mich nicht

    Zigeunerjunge, Zigeunerjunge
    er spielte am Feuer Gitarre
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    dann war das Feuer aus
    und ich lief schnell nach Haus

    Am anderen Tag konnt' ich nicht erwarten
    die fremden Zigeuner zu sehn
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    aber ich dufrte nicht gehn

    Die Wagen so bunt, die Pferdchen so zottig
    es zog mich zurück an den Ort
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    und ich lief heimlich fort
    und ich lief heimlich fort

    Dann kam der Abend, ich fand die Zigeuner nicht mehr - la la la -
    wo sie noch gestern gesungen, da war alles leer - la la la

    Zigeunerjunge, Zigeunerjunge
    wo bist du, wo sind eure Wagen?
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    doch es blieb alles leer
    und mein Herz wurde schwer

    Zigeunerjunge, Zigeunerjunge
    wo bist du, wer kann es mir sagen?
    - Tam ta ta ta ta tam tam ta tam tam ta tam -
    doch es blieb alles leer
    und ich weinte so sehr

    I'd Rather Have Jesus
    Composer(s): Rhea F. Miller; George Beverly Shea
    Performer(s): George Beverly Shea



    I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold
    I'd rather be His than have riches untold
    I'd rather have Jesus than houses or land
    I'd rather be led by His nail-pierced hand

    Than to be the king of a vast domain
    Or be held in sin's dread sway
    I'd rather have Jesus than anything
    This world affords today

    I'd rather have Jesus than men's applause
    I'd rather be faithful to His dear 'cause
    I'd rather have Jesus than worldwide fame
    I'd rather be true to His holy name

    He's fairer than lilies of rarest bloom
    He's sweeter than honey from out the comb
    He's all that my hungering spirit needs
    I'd rather have Jesus and let Him lead ...

    I'd Rather Have A Bottle In Front Of Me (Than a Frontal Lobotomy)
    Composer(s): Randy Hanzlick
    Performer(s): Randy Hanzlick



    Jimmy and I were brothers
    We went down different paths
    Jimmy always listened to my mother
    And me, I never like to take a bath

    As we grew and tumbled through adulthood
    The pressure caused emotional drain
    So now I'm slowly dying in the bottle
    and Jimmy has to live with half a brain

    Yes, me, I've got a bottle in front of me
    And Jimmy has a frontal lobotomy
    Just different ways to kill the pain the same

    But I'd rather have a bottle in front of me
    Than have to have a frontal lobotomy
    I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane

    Jimmy let his troubles drive him crazy
    He never tried to drown it in a drink
    I know that drinking makes my thinking hazy
    But at least I still have brains enough to think

    Jimmy's got a brain that isn't stable
    He doesn't have the sense to say his name
    I'm sorry that his doctor was unable
    To remove the proper portion of his brain

    Yes, me, I've got a bottle in front of me
    And Jimmy has a frontal lobotomy
    Just different ways to kill the pain the same

    But I'd rather have a bottle in front of me
    Than have to have a frontal lobotomy
    I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane

    Funny how the world works
    People can be real jerks
    Some prefer the tension over booze

    Either way it ends the same
    Hard to beat the living game
    Might as well enjoy it while you lose

    When I need a drink I start to shiver
    And Jimmy always viewed it with concern
    But I'd rather have cirrhosis of the liver
    Than an intellect that's second to a fern

    I wonder if old Jimmy's gonna hear it
    When I tell him that his logic wasn't sound
    They'll dose him up on lots of evil spirits
    When they take him to the psychiatric grounds

    Yes, me, I've got a bottle in front of me
    And Jimmy has a frontal lobotomy
    Just different ways to kill the pain the same

    But I'd rather have a bottle in front of me
    Than have to have a frontal lobotomy
    I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane
    I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane!

    Kid what changed your mood You've gone all sad so I feel sad too I think I know some things we never outgrow You think it's wrong I can tell you do How can I explain When you don't want me to Kid my only kid You look so small you've gone so quiet I know you know what I'm about I won't deny it But you forgive though you don't understand You've turned your head You've dropped by hand All my sorrow, all my blues All my sorrow Shut the light, go away Full of grace, you cover your face Kid gracious kid Your eyes are blue but you won't cry I know angry tears are too dear You won't let them go

    I'd Rather Go Blind
    Composer(s): Ellington Jordan; Billy Foster
    First release by: Etta James - 1968
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Something told me it was over
    When I saw you and her talking
    Something deep down in my soul said cry girl
    When I saw you and that girl walking

    I would rather
    I would rather go blind, boy
    Than to see you walk away from me, child
    So you see, I love you so much
    That I don't wanna watch you leave me, baby
    Most of all I just don't
    I just don't want to be free, no

    I was just, I was just
    I was just sitting here thinking
    Of your kiss and your warm embrace
    When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips, baby
    Revealed the tears that was on my face

    And
    Baby, Baby, I'd rather be blind, boy
    Than to see you walk away from me

    Kid Stuff
    Composer(s): Jerry Crutchfield; Don Earl
    Performer(s): Barbara Fairchild; Ralph Emery



    I often think of younger days
    A boy, a girl, and backyard play
    I'd get hurt, you'd get your way
    And they called it kid stuff

    And though it mattered little then
    The childish games you'd always win
    Now the stakes are higher and it's no longer kid stuff

    Kid stuff when I was little was sitting in the middle of a cotton candy world
    But now my heart is saying 'this is no game we're playing'
    For I can see I'm losing you to another world

    I remember very well plans we made by a wishing well
    And secret stuff we couldn't tell
    Ain't that just like kid stuff?

    And I always thought you'd be mine
    At least until the end of time
    I wore your ring that cost a dime
    Happiness is kid stuff

    Kid stuff when I was little was sitting in the middle of a cotton candy world
    But now my heart is saying 'this is no game we're playing'
    For I can see I'm losing you to another world
    I'm losing you to another world

    Tyger, tyger burning bright
    In the forests of the night
    What immortal hand or eye
    Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

    Tyger, tyger please beware
    Of human creatures lurking there

    Tyger, tyger burning bright
    In the forests of the night
    Did he smile his handiwork to see
    Did he who made the Lamb make thee?

    Tyger, tyger please beware
    Of human creatures lurking there
    Tyger, tyger burning bright

    I'd Rather Charleston
    Composer(s): George Gershwin; Desmond Carter
    Performer(s): Fred & Adele Astaire
    and multiple other artists



    Fred:
    I've seen for days that you've got
    The ways that must be checked
    In you I never can detect
    The slightest signs of intellect
    Your mad on dances, think of the chances you neglect
    You never seem inclined to use your mind
    And it's quite plain to see
    That I'm the brains of the family

    Fred:
    Take a lesson from me

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston

    Fred:
    Charleston?
    Think of what you might be

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston

    Fred:
    Charleston?
    I'm disappointed in you and your ways

    Adele:
    I'm double-jointed
    There's no sensation like syncopation

    Fred:
    Will you let me know why

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston

    Fred:
    Charleston?
    That's the sort of thing I would never do
    So, leave it behind and give your mind to something new

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston
    Fred: (Oh no), Charleston, Charleston with you

    Fred:
    Your way of living soon will be giving me a pain
    You just repeat that same refrain
    You use your feet and not your brain
    Something has got you
    I don't know what you hope to gain
    And after all I've done
    It's not much fun to have to have a Sister who's
    Got her brain in her dancing shoes

    Fred:
    So, take a lesson from me

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston

    Fred:
    Charleston?
    When you're older you'll see

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston
    Fred:
    Charleston?
    The great improvements I looked for in you

    Adele:
    I like improvements
    They make new plastic just like elastic

    Fred:
    Say, don't you ever keep cool

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston

    Fred:
    Oh no, that's the sort of thing silly people do
    Hey, haven't you read what Lincoln said in sixty-two

    Adele:
    Ye-a-a-a-h-h-h!

    Fred:
    Well, what'd he say?

    Adele:
    I'd rather Charleston
    Fred: (Oh no), Charleston, Charleston with you

    Fred: Not me

    I told you, baby, how I feel
    One word can close this deal
    Baby, be my queen of hearts
    Please gimme that love you've got
    A-won'tcha say yes? Don'tcha say no?
    Make me feel good, kiddio

    Maybe I'm just wastin' time
    Can't get you off my mind
    You could make me feel so good
    I know you could if you only would
    A-won'tcha say yes? Don'tcha say no?
    Make me feel good, kiddio

    I wrote you a six-page letter
    I called you on the phone
    But you started talkin' 'bout the weather
    Kiddio, don'tcha know that's wrong?

    I can't stand this playin' 'round
    Help me up, don't let me down
    Kiss me baby, tell me so
    If you love me, let me know
    A-won'tcha say yes? Don'tcha say no?
    Make me feel good, kiddio

    I wrote you a six-page letter
    I even called you on the phone
    But you started talkin' 'bout the weather
    Kiddio, don'tcha know that's wrong?

    I can't stand this playin' 'round
    Help me up, don't let me down
    A-kiss me baby, tell me so
    If you love me, let me know
    A-won'tcha say yes? Don'tcha say no?
    Make me feel good, kiddio

    Make me feel so-oh-oh oh good, so, so good, kiddio

    Two Women
    Composer(s): Bob Lind
    Performer(s): Bob Lind



    Diana says, "Man, that shirt
    Brings out the blue in your eyes"
    She tells you the things you say
    Are such a welcome surprise
    Sarah says, "Jesus Christ
    Do we have to hear that story again?
    Can't you pick up around you?
    I'm not your maid
    Is it too much to ask?
    Put a coaster under that glass"

    Diana looks in your eyes
    And sees there's somebody there
    Sarah can only see the clothes
    You left on the chair
    Diana brushing by, her fingers
    Tingling your neck, triggers a memory
    You start reaching back for the day
    Sarah used to touch you that way

    You twist your wedding ring
    And wonder whether everything
    You used to think was right could now be wrong
    But buddy, don't kid yourself
    If you move on to something else
    Diana will be Sarah before long

    Sarah picks up the kids
    And brings in the groceries and bills
    She knows you and loves you anyway
    Like no one else ever will
    Diana will always call from the shadows
    Promising more
    Either way, it's not easy
    Every step, either road that you take
    You're gonna carry the choices you make

    I'd Rather Be With You
    Composer(s): Frank Comstock; Roy Alfred
    Performer(s): Doris Day & male singer



    Male Singer:
    If I could sit at a table with Grable
    Ride in a car with Lamarr
    If I could dance with a sweet chick like Garbo or Dietrich
    I'd rather be with you

    If I could just cuddle nearer to Shearer
    Go on a tour with Lamour
    If I could show off the muscle to Rosalind Russell
    I'd rather be with you

    It won't be Adrian who put's you in clothes
    You don't do Maxie Factor to powder your nose
    And Grauman's theatre doesn't have the prints of your toes
    And without the help of Zanuck you're a panic

    If I could go to a parson with Garson
    Do just as well with Blondell
    If I could share a veranda with Carmen Miranda
    I'd rather be with you

    Doris:
    If I could wear something lacy for Tracy
    Let Ray Milland hold my hand
    If I could sip a Bacardi with Laurel and Hardy
    I'd rather be with you

    If I could go in a trailer with Taylor
    Be all alone with Tyrone
    If I could take all my chances with Errol's romances
    I'd rather be with you

    You're not with RKO, but still you're OK
    You'll never win an Oscar for actin' some day
    But you've got hair that's all your own and not a toupee
    And you'll never need a double if there's trouble

    If I could stay in a stupor with Cooper
    Possibly lure Vic Mature
    If I could fly to Sumatra with Frankie Sinatra
    I'd rather be with you

    Male Singer:
    If I could go to Havana with Lana

    Doris:
    Or not have a care for Astaire

    Male Singer:
    If I could roll out the barrel with Madeleine Carroll
    I'd rather be with you

    Doris:
    If I could just go and wander with Fonda
    Send me to stray Joel McCrea
    And if I thought I was able to get Mister Gable
    I'd rather be with you

    Male Singer:
    You've got the talent that they never could scout
    You don't need Technicolor in case you're in doubt
    For you are really at your best with all the lights out
    And they may not give you billin' but you're drillin'

    Doris:
    If I could do somethin' loony with Rooney
    Get in a brawl with Jon Hall

    Male Singer:
    If I could say what's disturbin' to Deanna Durbin
    I'd rather be with you

    Both:
    I'd rather be with you

    Kids Got The Blues
    Composer(s): John Mayall
    Performer(s): John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers



    There's a new generation
    Who could ever have guessed
    All across every nation
    And I must confess

    When I was just a young lad
    I wished I could be playin' the blues
    Now it's the twenty-first century
    We've come a long way

    Ev'ry kid's got those heroes
    They're learnin' to play
    To make a contribution
    Look at all kids with the blues

    When you hear that click
    You better catch up quick
    Ain't that a kick
    We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

    (Instrumental Break)

    It's the same at every concert
    Check out the front row
    Parents with their children, watchin' them grow
    Now they're motivated, won't be long before they're playin' the blues

    When you hear that click
    You better catch up quick
    Now ain't that a kick
    We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

    (Instrumental Break)

    It's a heavy situation
    Don't need a new drug
    The kids of our nation catchin' that bug
    All around the world I hear the sound of kids playin' the blues

    When you hear that click
    You better catch up quick
    Now ain't that a kick
    We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

    Now ain't that a kick
    We got the kids turnin' on to the blues
    Ain't that a kick
    We got the kids turnin' on to the blues

    Two Tone Shoes
    ((Adapted from: Blue Suede Shoes (Carl Perkins))
    Composer(s): Carl Perkins
    Performer(s): Homer & Jethro



    One part's white, the other is tan
    I bought 'em down at Tom McAn
    Now don't you step on my two-tone shoes
    I'll give you a bruise if you step on my shoes

    I went to a dance at the Cimarron
    I danced all night with my new shoes on
    I durn near danced myself to death
    The tongues in my shoes was a-pantin' for breath
    Now don't you step on my two-tone shoes
    Please don't abuse my purty two-tone shoes

    I danced on the bottoms, you danced on the top
    Honey, this stuff has got to stop
    Now don't you step on my two-tone shoes
    You've ruined them now, you great big clumsy cow

    Now honey you look so nice and neat
    Where did you get them great big feet
    When we're dancin' all alone
    Leave them combat boots at home
    Now don't you step on my two-tone shoes
    Can't you see your feet are killin' me

    Now tell me, Alice, was it malice
    When you stepped upon my callus
    My two-tones, I wore 'em plumb full of holes
    The tops are shot, have mercy on my soles
