    It Won't Be Right
    Composer(s): Tom Johnston; Patrick Simmons
    The Doobie Brothers



    Early in the mornin', when the sun come up
    you'll find me sittin' at the table
    drinkin' from a wooden cup
    The mortgage is a-comin', tryin' to take my home away
    I'm not gonna let it turn my head away

    It won't be right, no matter what they say
    Won't be right, tryin' to take my home away
    Won't be right, if they do this thing to me
    I don't have to take it and I really don't wanna see

    Early in the eve-in', long about supper time
    there's nothin' left here for me but a bottle of wine
    I'm gonna be evicted 'long about the hour of five
    Well, it's enough to make me wonder why I'm alive

    It won't be right, no matter what they say
    Won't be right, tryin' to take my home away
    Won't be right, if they do this thing to me
    I don't have to take it and I really don't wanna see

    It won't be right, no matter what they say
    Won't be right, tryin' to take my home away
    Won't be right, if they do this thing to me
    I don't have to take it and I really don't wanna see

    It won't be right, no matter what they say
    Won't be right, tryin' to take my home away
    Won't be right, if they do this thing to me
    I don't have to take it and I really don't wanna see

    Barnyard Christmas Composer(s): Jack Stearn Performer(s): The Bell Sisters



    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    Barnyard Christmas, Barnyard Christmas
    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    On the farm this year

    The saw's gonna cut the Christmas tree
    The stove's gonna bake plum puddin' for me
    The broom's gonna sweep the house so clean
    The cow's gonna give us rich ice cream

    Rich ice cream, house so clean
    Puddin' for me, Christmas tree

    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    Barnyard Christmas, Barnyard Christmas
    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    On the farm this year

    The pig's gonna give us juicy ham
    We'll have the bestest duck what am
    The horse'll pull us through the snow
    We'll kiss beneath the mistletoe

    Mistletoe, through the snow
    Duck what am, juicy ham
    Rich ice cream, house so clean
    Puddin' for me, Christmas tree

    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    Barnyard Christmas, Barnyard Christmas
    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    On the farm this year

    Now all you children gather `round
    `Cause Santa Clause is comin' to town
    He'll get a surprise that's really grand
    With a serenade from our animal band

    (Barnyard animals "sing" Jingle Bells)

    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    On the farm this year

    The hammer will hang our stocking up
    We hope to get a brand new pup
    And when the sleigh bells ring out clear
    We'll know that jolly Santa's near

    Santa's near, ring out clear
    Brand new pup, stocking up
    Mistletoe, through the snow
    Duck what am, juicy ham
    Rich ice cream, house so clean
    Puddin' for me, Christmas tree

    We're gonna have a Barnyard Christmas
    Barnyard Christmas, Barnyard Christmas
    We want to wish you a Merry Christmas
    And a Happy New Year!

    Ballad Of The Harp Weaver Composer(s): Thelma Matesky Moore - Edna St. Vincent Millay Performer(s): Johnny Cash; Agnes Moorehead



    Son said my mother when I was knee high
    You need of clothes to cover you and not a rag have I
    There's nothing in the house to make a boy's britches
    Nor shears to cut a cloth with, nor thread to take stitches
    There's nothing in the house but a leaf end of rye
    And the harp with a woman's head nobody will buy and she began to cry

    That was in the early fall and when came the late fall
    Son she said the sight of you makes your mother's blood crawl
    Little skinny shoulder blades stickin' through your clothes
    And where you get a jacket from God above knows
    It's lucky for me lad, your daddy's in the ground
    And can't see the way I let his son go around and she made a queer sound

    That was in the late fall when the winter came
    I'd not a pair of bridges nor a shirt to my name
    I couldn't go to school or out of doors to play
    And all the other little boys passed our way
    Son said my mother come climb into my lap
    And I'll chafe your little knees while you take a nap

    And oh but we were silly for half an hour or more
    Me with my long legs draggin' on the floor
    I rocked, rocked, rocked to a mother goose rhyme
    Oh but we were happy for half an hour's time
    But there was I, a great boy and what would folks say
    To hear my mother singin' me to sleep all day in such a daft way

    Men say the winter was bad that year
    Fuel was scarce and food was dear
    A wind with a wolf's head howled about our door
    And we burned up the chairs and sat upon the floor
    All that was left us was a chair we couldn't break
    And the harp with a woman's head nobody would take for song or pity sake

    The night before Christmas I cried with the cold
    I cried myself to sleep like a two year old
    And in the deep night I felt my mother rise
    And stare down upon me with love in her eyes
    I saw my mother sitting on the one good chair
    A light falling on her face from I couldn't tell where

    Looking nineteen and not a day older
    And the harp with a woman's head leaned against her shoulder
    Her thin fingers moving in the thin tall strings
    Were weave, weave, weaving wonderful things
    Many bright threads from where I couldn't see
    Were running through the harp strings rapidly

    And gold threads whistlin' through my mother's hands
    I saw the web grow and the pattern expand
    She wove a child's jacket and when it was done
    She laid it on the floor and wove another one
    She wove a red cloak so regal to see
    She's made it for a king's son I said and not for me but I knew it was for me

    She wove a pair of bridges and quicker than that
    She wove a pair of boots a little cocked hat
    She wove a pair of mittens she wove a little blouse
    She wove all night in the still cold house
    She sang as she worked and the harp strings spoke
    But her voice never faltered and the thread never broke

    But when I awoke, there sat my mother
    With the harp against her shoulder lookin' nineteen and not a day older
    A smile about her lips and a light about her head
    And her hands in the harp strings frozen dead
    And piled up beside her, toppling to the skies
    Were the clothes of a king's son just my size

    Rock Roll, Rock Roll

    You take some music, music
    Sweet flowin' music
    Some movin' and groovin'
    Rock and roll will stand

    Take some heart beats drum beats
    Finger poppin' and stompin' feet
    Little dances that look so neat
    You see why it will stand

    Some folks don't understand it
    That's why they don't demand it
    They're out tryn' to end it
    Forgive them for they know not what theyre doin'

    Don't nick name it
    You might as well claim it
    It swept this whole wide land
    Rock and roll forever will stand

    Hear those sax blowin'
    Sharp as lightnin'
    Hear those drums beat
    Loud as thunder

    Some folks don't understand it
    That's why they don't demand it
    They're out tryin' to end it
    Forgive them for they know not what they're doin'

    Don't you rename it
    You might as well claim it
    It will be here for ever and ever
    Ain't gonna fade
    Never no never

    It swept this whole wide land
    Sinking deep in the heart of man
    Come on boy join our clan
    Come on boy take my hand
    Come on boy be a man
    'Cause rock and roll will stand

    Let's do it all over again
    I feel good let's do it again
    It'll be here for ever and ever
    Ain't gonna fade
    Never, no never ...

    Little Child (Daddy Dear)
    Composer(s): Wayne Shanklin
    Performer(s): Wes Montgomery
    and multiple other artists



    Daddy dear, tell me please, is the world really round?
    Tell me where is the bluebird of happiness found?
    Tell me why is the sky up above so blue?
    And when you were a child did your daddy tell you
    What becomes of the sun when it falls into the sea
    And who lights it again bright as bright can be?
    Tell me why can't I fly without wings through the skies?
    Tell me why, Daddy dear, are there tears in your eyes?

    Little one, little one, yes, the world's really round
    And the bluebird you search for will surely be found
    And the sky up above is so blue and clear so that
    You'll see the bluebird if it should come near
    And the sun doesn't fall when it slips out of sight
    All it does is make way for the moon's pretty light
    And if children could fly there'd be no need for birds
    And I cry, little one, 'cause I'm touched by your words

    Don't be sad, Daddy dear, if it's true the world's round
    I will search 'round the world till the bluebird is found
    Little one, there's no need to wander too far
    For what you really seek is right here where you are
    Show me where, Daddy dear, and here's what I will do
    I will take the dear bluebird and give it to you
    Dear, the bluebird's the love in your heart pure and true
    And I found it the day heaven blessed me with you!"

    It Will Be My Day
    (French Version: Je M'Voyais Déjà)
    Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Robert E. Morrison
    Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



    At eighteen I grew restless for the city
    I'd see its lights that beckoned from afar
    I packed my dreams, assured I'd be successful
    I'd sing my songs, I'd soon become a star

    I needed clothes to make the right impression
    I bought a suit, the finest tailor-made
    Had an act, then designed, with the ladies in mind
    Endure the debt I felt would be repaid

    I dreamed I would be emblazoned in neon
    The biggest, the best, above all the rest, wherever I'd play
    I dreamed I would be acknowledged the greatest
    The cream of the crop, it's good at the top, I was there to stay

    The loveliest girls would gather around me
    With photos to sign, they all would be mine for less than a smile
    My curtain would cue, resounding ovations
    Their deafening roar would ring out for more, I'd go off in style"

    The older that I become, my features are ageing
    My voice is still there, my gesture's precise, my talent would glow
    At times I've had bitterness, for nothing has happened
    I've struggled and strived, but never arrived, and I'm still unknown

    And yet, yet I believe that my time is coming
    If given the breaks, I've got what it takes to go all the way
    Then under my feet the stage would be pulsing
    Finally I'd be there in the spotlights glare, it would be my day

    For thirty years it's been an endless circle
    I've made the rounds, they always look the same
    I sing my songs, but people seldom listen
    They never care, for they don't know my name

    To keep alive, I've played the third-rate bookings
    I have no choice, I take what I can find
    Sleazy clubs, little pay, easy girls, sleep all day
    But in my dreams, I leave it far behind

    I dreamed that I'll be relating the story
    Of how I prevailed when I should have failed, in my quest for fame
    I dreamed I would be enjoying my leisure
    Taking life in stride, ladies at my side, wild from the game

    On opening night, I'll calmly be reading
    The thousands of words from those who admire my standing alone
    The stage light would dim, the moment would quicken
    My heart in my throat, hearing the first note, I'd be on my own

    I tried to find a gimmick, to lift me from darkness
    I've sung about love, I've ?????? songs, a stale joke or two
    If everything fails and I'm left in the shadows
    The fault isn't mine, I asked for a chance, but nothing came through

    I have no one to thank, for no one has offered
    To give me a hand, or take any stand, that's out of their way
    But deep in my heart, I know, I know that I have it
    And I'll get my due life and start anew, it will be my day

    Composer(s): J.D. Miller
    Performer(s): Kitty Wells
    and multiple other artists



    As I sit here tonight, the jukebox playing
    The tune about the wild side of life
    As I listen to the words you are saying
    It brings memories when I was a trusting wife

    It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
    As you said in the words of your song
    Too many times married men think they're still single
    That has caused many a good girl to go wrong

    It's a shame that all the blame is on us women
    It's not true that only you men feel the same
    >From the start most every heart that's ever broken
    Was because there always was a man to blame

    It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
    As you said in the words of your song
    Too many times married men think they're still single
    That has caused many a good girl to go wrong

    It Was Only The Wind
    Composer(s): Tom T. Hall; Louise Scruggs
    Performer(s): Lester Flatt; John Tomlin



    She would sit by her window and gaze out
    Down the road where her children had gone
    One by one they left seeking their fortune
    And left their old mother alone

    Sometime late at night she would call me
    Sir did I here a knock at the door
    I would say it was only the wind man
    Just as I had told her before

    It's only the wind
    Your children are not at the door
    It's only the wind
    The wind restless wind, nothing more

    Sometime she would talk of her children
    Of her son and her doughter so fair
    She said they were much like the wild wind
    They sometime neglected to care

    One night I heard somebady knocking
    But I saw as I went to the door
    She was there in her chair by the window
    Her eyes closesd in rest forever more

    It's only the wind
    Your children are not at the door
    It's only the wind
    The wind restless wind, nothing more

    Away in a manger, no crib for his bed
    the little Lord Jesus laid down his Sweet head
    The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay
    The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

    The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
    But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
    I love thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky
    And stay by my side until morning is nigh

    Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay
    Close by me forever, and love me, I pray
    Bless all the dear children in thy tender care
    And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there

    My lonesome clock'll
    Tick-tick-tock all through the day

    We quarreled, dear, but don't you fear
    I'll soon return
    You know you're yearning
    I know you're yearning, too!

    Honey, don't you cry
    Clouds are rolling by
    The rainbow's in the sky
    It was only a sun shower

    In the shelter of
    Sunny skies above
    We will live and love
    It was only a sun shower

    Now, why do we complain?
    We should be cheerful and gay
    Tomorrow sun will shine again
    Although it's cloudy today
    Love finds a way

    So, honey don't be blue
    We'll go smiling through
    Forever
    It was only a sun shower, sweetheart!

    Honey, don't you cry
    Clouds are rolling by
    The rainbow's in the sky
    It was only a little sun shower

    In the shelter of
    Sunny skies above
    We will live and love
    It was only a little sun shower

    Now, why do we complain?
    We should be cheerful and gay
    Tomorrow sun will shine again
    Although it's cloudy today
    Love finds a way

    So, honey don't be blue
    We'll go smiling through
    Forever
    It was only a sun shower, sweetheart!

    Awake Before Sunrise Performer(s): CW 'Bill' Bennett & David Dell



    Awake before sunrise, before heat of day Get ready for Christmas, we must be away Come worship the Christ child, our shepherd, our head The woolshed his dwelling, the wool bale his bed The shepherds go muster, the dogs hunt away With dust and the barking, it's shearing all day A breather for smoko, a time to give pride To Jesus our shepherd, our saviour and guide On horseback, on hill top, creation below God's beauty, our freedom, in Christ we may know

    It Was Only A Gypsy
    Composer(s): Jake Thackray
    Performer(s): Jake Thackray



    I am a handsome policeman
    I am bold and versatile
    My wife is white and beautiful, with breasts of alabaster
    When I hurry home to her, she whispers with a smile
    "What did you do today, my big blue hero?"

    "There was only a gypsy
    A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoy
    Up to no good. I did what I should
    A little physical persuasion and he passed on by"

    But now I grow impatient to enjoy her juicy beauty
    I surge to the rising rhythms of those breasts of alabaster
    "No," she cries, "pray tell me what you did today on duty
    Tell me more about this hairy gypsy!"

    "It was only a gypsy
    A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoy
    Up to no good
    I did what I should
    A little physical persuasion and he passed on by"

    "But tell me, pretty darling, will you tell me, in your turn
    Who placed those fresh wild flowers in your breasts of alabaster?
    And when you smile, between your teeth, still wedged, do I discern
    A sprig of whisker from another's moustache?"

    "It was only a gypsy", she sighed
    "A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoy
    Up to no good
    I did what I could
    A little physical persuasion and he passed on by

    It was only a gypsy boy
    A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoy-oy-oy
    Up to no good
    I did what I could
    A little physical persuasion and he passed on by"

    Between her breasts a hedgerow nosegay
    In between her teeth a tell-tale whisker
    The house is full of clothes-pegs

    It Was On A Fine Summer's Morning (aka Pretty Maid Milking A Cow)
    Composer(s): Caelin Deas; Thomas Moore



    It was on a fine summer's morning
    When the birds sweetly tuned on each bough
    I heard a fair maid sing most charming
    As she sat a-milking her cow
    Her voice, it was chanting melodious
    She left me scarce able to go
    My heart it is soothed in solace
    My Cailín deas crúite na mbó

    With courtesy I did salute her
    "Good-morrow, most amiable maid
    I'm your captive slave for the future"
    "Kind sir, do not banter," she said
    "I'm not such a precious rare jewel
    That I should enamour you so
    I am but a plain country girl"
    Says Cailín deas crúite na mbó

    "The Indies afford no such jewel
    So precious and transparently fair
    Oh! do not to my flame add fuel
    But consent for to love me, my dear
    Take pity and grant my desire
    And leave me no longer in woe
    Oh! love me or else I'll expire
    Sweet Cailín deas crúite na mbó"

    "Or had I the wealth of great Damer
    Or all on the African shore
    Or had I great Devonshire treasure
    Or had I ten thousand times more
    Or had I the lamp of Alladin
    Or had I his genie also
    I'd rather live poor on a mountain
    With Cailín deas crúite na mbó"

    "I beg you'll withdraw and don't tease me
    I cannot consent unto thee
    I like to live single and airy
    Till more of the world I do see
    New cares they would me embarrass
    Besides, sir, my fortune is low
    Until I get rich I'll not marry"
    Says Cailín deas crúite na mbó

    "An old maid is like an old almanack
    Quite useless when once out of date
    If her ware is not sold in the morning
    At noon it must fall to low rate
    The fragrance of May is soon over
    The rose loses its beauty, you know
    All bloom is consumed in October
    Sweet Cailín deas crúite na mbó"

    "A young maid is like a ship sailing
    There's no knowing how long she may steer
    For with every blast she's in danger
    Oh! consent, love, and banish all care
    For riches I care not a farthing
    Your affection I want and no more
    In comfort I'd wish to enjoy you
    My Cailín deas crúite na mbó.."

    Augustus Caesar Having Brought



    Augustus Caesar having brought The world to quiet peace That all the noise of bloody wars In every land did cease Just Joseph, with his Mary mild To Bethlehem did come Which blessed place appointed was To ease her burden'd womb O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace Then, all the town being full of guests Such was their helpless case That not a bed for them was left Nor any lodging place But in a poor and simple inn Even an ox's stall Appointed was to entertain The Saviour of us all O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace No mantle, nor no rich attire No swaddling bands, nor linen rare No costly robes, nor golden treasure Could Jesus Christ our Lord have there No other nurse nor lullaby But blessed Mary's arms To rock this blessed babe to sleep With heavenly hymns and charms O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace Thus was the Son of God not born In majesty and state As Princes of the Nations be Tho' he a Prince most great Yet at his blessed birth the choirs Of heavenly Angels sing And every thing for Jury's King Rejoiced with thanksgiving O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace O Holy, Holy, Lord of Hosts This was their joy and mirth Which sounded out on every coast For Jesus Christ his birth Both Cherubim, and Seraphim With all the Hosts of Heaven With joyful voice sang praises forth To glorify this even O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace And when that blessed morning came That God's dear Son was born A glorious Star with blazing beams Did all the skies adorn Which unto Shepherds in the fields The first of all appear'd A voice likewise came down from Heaven And thus the Shepherds cheer'd O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace This tide is born in Bethlehem A Saviour, and a King Whose merits shall redeem the world And man's salvation bring All glory be to God on high And peace on Earth to all And goodwill still be unto men This was the Angel's call O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace This Star did not alone appear Unto the Shepherds poor But to the sages of the world To make their glory more Who came conducted by the Star From countries far from thence And there presented at his feet Gold, myrrh, and frankincense O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace The which when cruel Herod heard Of this great homage done By the three Wise Men of the East To Mary's blessed Son He sent throughout all Jury land To have this infant slain With every one of two years old And none did there remain O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace Then Bethlehem grew red with blood And white with infants' bones That nought was heard in Jury's land But childless mothers' moans Yet Mary's babe, by Heaven preserv'd Escaped their bloody rage And liv'd in Egypt, till he came To the term of twelve years of age O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace Even as the Angel did appoint His parents did back return And with their Son in Jury's land In safety did sojourn But Herod's death by judgment strange Before the time befell Whose bowells brake and did burst out As ancient stories tell O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace Then Jesus Christ, at twelve years old In Jury began to preach And to the sages of the land Of Moses' laws did teach And afterwards for twenty years He oft did fast and pray Till cursed Judas with a kiss Sweet Jesus did betray O sing we all, with heart and voice Let Christian love increase For unto us this day is born The only Prince of Peace

    It Was Love, Love Alone
    Performer(s): Harry Belafonte



    It was love; love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    On the 10th of December we heard the talk
    He gave his throne to the Duke of York
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    King Edward was noble, King Edward was great
    it was love that caused him to abdicate
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    He said he was sorry that his Mommy would grieve
    he cannot help it, he would have to leave
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    You can take his power you can take his bought
    leave him with his yachting boat
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    Ha,love, love, love, love
    Caused King Edward.......

    You can take his money you can take his store
    but leave him that lady from Baltimore
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    I don’t know what Mrs Simpson got in her bone
    that caused the king to leave his throne
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    On the 10th of December 1936
    the Duke of Windsor went to get his kicks
    It was love; love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    It was love; love, love, love
    love, love, love, love
    love, love, it was love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    It was love; love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne
    It was love, love, love, love, lova alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne
    It was love; love alone
    cause the king to leave his throne
    It was love, love, love, love, love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    It was love, (Sound of a double kiss) love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne
    It was love, (Sound of a double kiss) love alone
    Caused King Edward to leave his throne

    It was love, love, love; love, love love ...

    Au Royaume Du Bonhomme Hiver (Adapted from - Winter Wonderland - 1934) (Danish Version: Et Vinterhvidt Vidunderland - 1978) Composer(s): Richard B. Smith; Felix Bernard Performer(s): Roch Voisine - 2000



    Écoutez les clochettes
    Du joyeux temps des fêtes
    Annonçant la joie
    Dans chaque cœur qui bat
    Au royaume du bonhomme hiver

    Sous la neige qui tombe
    Le traîneau vagabonde
    Semant tout autour
    des chansons d'amour
    Au royaume du bonhomme hiver

    Le voilà qui sourit sur la place
    Son chapeau, sa canne et son foulard
    Il semble nous dire d'un ton bonace
    Ne voyez-vous donc pas qu'il est en tard

    Il dit vrait tout de même
    Près du feu, je t'emmène
    Allons nous chauffer dans l'intimité
    Au royaume du bonhomme hiver
