    It's A Hard Life Wherever You Go
    Composer(s): Nanci Griffith
    Performer(s): Nanci Griffith
    and multiple other artists



    I am a backseat driver from America
    They drive to the left on Falls Road
    The man at the wheel's name is Seamus
    We pass a child on the corner he knows
    And Seamus says,'Now, what chance has that kid got?'
    And I say from the back,'I don't know'
    He says,'There's barbed wire at all of these exits
    And there ain't no place in Belfast for that kid to go'

    It's a hard life
    It's a hard life
    It's a very hard life
    It's a hard life wherever you go
    If we poison our children with hatred
    Then, the hard life is all they'll ever know
    And there ain't no place in (Belfast/Chicago/this world) for these kids to go

    A cafeteria line in Chicago
    The fat man in front of me
    Is calling black people trash to his children
    He's the only trash here I see
    And I'm thinking this man wears a white hood
    In the night when his children should sleep
    But, they slip to their window and they see him
    And they think that white hood's all they need

    It's a hard life
    It's a hard life
    It's a very hard life
    It's a hard life wherever you go
    If we poison our children with hatred
    Then, the hard life is all they'll ever know
    And there ain't no place in (Belfast/Chicago/this world) for these kids to go

    I was a child in the sixties
    Dreams could be held through TV
    With Disney and Cronkite and Martin Luther
    Oh, I believed, I believed, I believed
    Now, I am a backstreet driver from America
    I am not at the wheel of control
    I am guilty, I am war I am the root of all evil
    Lord, and I can't drive on the left side of the road

    It's a hard life
    It's a hard life
    It's a very hard life
    It's a hard life wherever you go
    If we poison our children with hatred
    Then, the hard life is all they'll ever know
    And there ain't no place in (Belfast/Chicago/this world) for these kids to go

    Love Me A Little Little
    Composer(s): Horace Holmes - Eilen Orr - Howard Smith
    Performer(s): Lynn Gardner; Lena Horne



    Love me a little little
    Only a little little
    That's all I'm askin' you to do

    Love me a little little
    Only a little little
    You know I'm crazy over you

    While I live, I'll never give you up, I swear
    I'll hang around you and I'll hound you
    Till I make you care

    One, little little little
    Two, little little little
    Three little words I want to hear
    From the one and only one that I adore

    And every day, I'll return
    And sing this ditty until you learn
    To love me a little little
    Just a little little
    Just a little bit more

    It's A Hard Life
    Composer(s): Freddie Mercury
    Performer(s): Queen
    and multiple other artists



    I don't want my freedom
    There's no reason for living with a broken heart

    This is a tricky situation
    I've only got myself to blame
    It's just a simple fact of life
    It can happen to anyone

    You win - you lose
    It's a chance you have to take with love
    Oh yeah - I fell in love
    And now you say it's over and I'm falling apart

    It's a hard life
    To be true lovers together
    To love and live forever in each others hearts
    It's a long hard fight
    To learn to care for each other
    To trust in one another right from the start
    When you're in love

    I try and mend the broken pieces
    I try to fight back the tears
    They say it's just a state of mind
    But it happens to everyone

    How it hurts - deep inside
    When your love has cut you down to size
    Life is tough - on your own
    Now I'm waiting for something to fall from the skies
    And I'm waiting for love

    Yes it's a hard life
    Two lovers together
    To love and live forever in each others hearts
    It's a long hard fight
    To learn to care for each other
    To trust in one another - right from the start
    When you're in love

    Yes it's a hard life
    In a world that's filled with sorrow
    There are people searching for love in ev'ry way
    It's a long hard fight
    But I'll always live for tomorrow
    I'll look back on myself and say I did it for love
    Yes I did it for love - for love - oh I did it for love

    Love Makes You Feel
    Composer(s): Lou Reid
    Performer(s): Lou Reid



    Life isn't what is seems, I'm forever
    drifting into dreams
    Such a sad affair, to always be drifting into air

    But it's not what you say or you do
    that makes me feel like I am falling
    It's things that we've both been through
    that makes me feel like I am upside down

    And love makes you feel ten foot tall

    Yes, love makes you feel ten foot tall

    Just a funny thing, I'm forever drifting into dreams
    Just not the proper thing, to always be drifting into dreams

    But it's not what you say or you do
    that makes me feel like I am falling
    It's things that we've both been through
    that makes me feel like I am upside down

    And love makes you feel ten foot tall

    Yes, love makes you feel ten foot tall

    And it sounds like this

    It's A Great Day To Be Alive
    Composer(s): Darrell Scott
    Performer(s): Travis Tritt
    and multiple other artists



    I got rice cooking in the microwave
    Got a three day beard I don't plan to shave
    And it's a goofy thing but I just gotta say
    Hey, I'm doing alright
    Yeah I think I'll make me some homemade soup
    Feelin' pretty good and that's the truth
    It's neither drink nor drug induced
    No, I'm just doin' alright

    And it's a great day to be alive
    I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
    There's some hard times in the neighborhood
    But why can't every day be just this good?

    It's been fifteen years since I left home
    Said good luck to every seed I'd sown
    Give it my best and then I left it alone
    Oh I hope they're doin' alright
    Now I look in the mirror and what do I see?
    A lone wolf there starin' back at me
    Long in the tooth but harmless as can be
    Lord, I guess he's doin' alright

    And it's a great day to be alive
    I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
    There's some hard times in the neighborhood
    But why can't every day be just this good?

    Sometimes its lonely
    Sometimes its only me and
    The shadows that fill this room
    Sometimes I'm fallin', desperately callin'
    Howlin' at the moon

    Well I might go get me a new tatoo or
    Take my old Harley for a three day cruise
    Might even grow me a fu man chu

    And it's a great day to be alive
    I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
    There's some hard times in the neighborhood
    But why can't every day be just this good?

    And it's a great day to be alive
    I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my eyes
    There's some hard times in the neighborhood
    But why can't every day be just this good?

    The Chanukah Song
    Composer(s): Ian Maxtone-Graham; L. Morton; Adam Sandler
    Performer(s): Adam Sandler; Neil Diamond



    Part 1

    This is a song, that uh, there's a lot of Christmas songs out there
    but not too many about Hanukkah
    So I wrote a song for all those nice little Jewish kids
    who dont get to hear any Hanukkah songs
    Here we go.....

    Put on your yalmulka, here comes Hanukkah
    It's so much fun-akkah to celebrate Hanukkah

    Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights
    Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights

    When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree
    Heres a list of people who are Jewish, just like you and me

    David Lee Roth lights the menorrah
    So do James Caan, Kirk Douglas, and the late Dinah Shore-ah

    Guess who eats together at the Karnickey Deli
    Bowzer from Sha-na-na, and Arthur Fonzerrelli

    Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldie Hawn's half too
    Put them together, what a fine lookin' Jew!

    You dont need Deck the Halls or Jingle Bell Rock
    Cause you can spin the dreidl with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock, both Jewish!

    Put on your yalmulka, its time for Hanukkah
    The owner of the Seattle Supersonic-ahs celebrates Hanukkah

    O.J. Simpson, not a Jew!
    But guess who is, Hall of Famer Rod Carew, he converted!

    We got Ann Landers and her sister Dear Abby
    Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish, not too shabby!

    Some people think that Ebeneezer Scrooge is
    Well, he's not, but guess who is, all three stooges

    So many Jews are in show biz
    Tom Cruise isn't, but I heard his agent is

    Tell your friend Veronica, it's time you celebrate Hanukkah
    I hope I get a harmonica, on this lovely, lovely Hanukkah

    So drink your gin-and-tonic-ah, and smoke your marajuanic-ah
    If you really, really wanna-kah
    Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Hanukkah

    ----------

    Part 2

    Time to take out those menorahs!
    Put on your yalmulka, it's time for Hanukkah
    So much fun-uka to celebrate Hanukkah

    Hanukkah is, the festival of lights
    Instead of one day of presents, we get eight crazy nights

    When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree
    Here's a new list of people who are Jewish just like you and me

    Winona Ryder drinks Manashevits' wine
    Then spins a dredl with Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein

    Guess who give and receives loads of Hanukkah toys?
    The girls from Barukasouhl and all three Beastie Boys

    Lenny Kravitz is half Jewish, Courtney Love is half too
    Put them together, what a funky, bad-ass Jew

    We got Harvey Keitel and flashdancer Jennifer Beals
    Yasmine Bleeth from Baywatch is Jewish and yes, her boobs are real

    O.J. Simpson, still not a Jew
    But guess who is, the guy who does the voice for Scooby-Doo

    Bob Dylan was born a Jew, then he wasn't, but now he's back
    Mary Tyler Moore's husband is Jewish 'cuz we're pretty good in the sack

    Guess who got bar mitzvah-ed on the PGA tour?
    No, I'm not talking about Tiger Woods, I'm talking about Mister Happy Gilmore

    So many Jews are in the show-biz
    Bruce Springsteen isn't Jewish, but my Mother thinks he is

    Tell that old harmonica, it's time to celebrate Hanukkah
    It's not pronounced Chanukkah, the C is silent in Hanukkah

    So your your Hooked on Phonic-a, get drunk in Teawonica
    If you really really wanna-kah
    Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Hanukkah

    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Oscar Hammerstein II
    Performer(s): William Marshall (Marty), Dick Haymes (Wayne),
    Jeanne Crain (Margie), Dana Andrews (Pat)



    Marty:
    It's a grand night for singing
    The moon is flying high
    And somewhere a bird
    Who is bound he'll be heard
    Is throwing his heart at the sky!

    It's a grand night for singing
    The stars are bright above
    The earth is a-glow
    And to add to the show
    I think I am falling in love!
    Falling, falling in love

    It's a grand night for singing
    The moon is flying high
    And somewhere a bird
    Who is bound he’ll be heard
    Is throwing his heart at the sky!

    Wayne:
    Maybe it's more than the moon
    Maybe it's more than the birds
    Maybe it's more than sight of the night
    In a light too lovely for words

    Maybe it's more than the earth
    Shiny in silvery blue
    Maybe the reason I'm feeling this way
    Has something to do with you!

    It's a grand night for singing
    The moon is flying high
    And somewhere a bird
    Who is bound he'll be heard
    Is throwing his heart at the sky!

    It's a grand night for singing
    The stars are bright above
    The earth is a-glow
    And, to add to the show
    I think I am falling in love!
    Falling, falling in love!

    Margie and Pat:
    It's a grand night for singing
    The moon is flying high
    And somewhere a bird
    Who is bound he'll be heard
    Is throwing his heart at the sky!

    Wayne:

    And, to add to the show
    I think I am falling in love!
    Falling, falling in love!

    The Losing End (When You're On)
    Composer(s): Neil Young
    First release by: Neil Young & Crazy Horse - 1969



    I went into town to see you yesterday
    But you were not home
    So I talked to some old friends for a while
    Before I wandered off alone

    It's so hard for me now
    But I'll make it somehow
    Though I know I'll never be the same
    Won't you ever change your ways
    It's so hard to make love pay
    When you're on the losing end
    And I feel that way again

    Well, I miss you more than ever
    Since you've gone, I can hardly maintain
    Things are different round here every night
    My tears fall down like rain

    It's so hard for me now
    But I'll make it somehow,
    Though I know I'll never be the same
    Won't you ever change your ways
    It's so hard to make love pay
    When you're on the losing end
    And I feel that way again

    First release by: Peggy Lee - 1946
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Yes, it's a good day for singing a song
    and it's a good day for moving alone
    Yes, it's a good day, how could anything go wrong
    A good day from morning' till night

    Yes, it's a good day for shining your shoes
    and it's a good day for losing the blues
    Everything go gain and nothing' to lose
    `Cause it's a good day from morning' till night

    I said to the Sun, "Good morning sun
    Rise and shine today"
    You know you've gotta get going
    If you're gonna make a showin'
    And you know you've got the right of way

    `Cause it's a good day for paying your bills
    And it's a good day for curing your ills
    So take a deep breath and throw away your pills
    `Cause it's a good day from morning' till night

    Losers And Winners
    Composer(s): Accept - Deaffy - Peter Baltes - Stefan Kaufmann - Udo Dirkschneider - Wolf Hoffmann
    Performer(s): Accept



    You told me that you like her, but she doesn`t wanna know
    You tried so much to take her, bur there`s no way to go
    I know that kind of feeling, knocking on someone`s door
    I know the endless crying when you don`t know what you`re living for

    Write a letter (What`s the matter?)
    You`ll find better (Write a letter)
    You`ll feel better when it`s done

    There`s one way to show what you feel for the girl
    Write her a loveley letter, tell her what you`re looking for
    Don`t think it`s old fashion to take one`s heard (when it`s true)
    You gotta take it as a man when you can`t win her in this game

    Write a letter ...
    There are losers and winners, just like you and me

    You should give me the letter; I`ll use it for my own
    Maybe she wants to take me before she stays alone
    Could be my destination to pick up broken hearts
    Why don`t you take it easy and screw the girls who`s next to you

    Write a letter ...

    It's A Game
    Composer(s): Chris Adams
    Performer(s): Bay City Rollers



    The clown came down to meet me
    With a smile upon his face
    He fired his starting pistol
    And began the human race
    There were faces all around me
    They were running everywhere
    But everywhere is nowhere
    And nowhere isn't there

    It's a game, a game, a game that we're playing
    Well, I don't mind but I don't make the rules
    It's a game, a game, a game that we're playing
    Just a game for lovers and fools

    There's snakes upon your ladder
    And there's dice upon your skirt
    There's lipstick on my collar
    And there's sweat upon my shirt
    The neighbours will start talking
    But you know that I don't care
    For the neighbours they are nowhere
    And nowhere isn't there

    It's a game, a game, a game that we're playing ...

    Burning Out Again (A Kind Of Christmas Card)
    Composer(s): Morten Harket; H. Rem
    Performer(s): Morten Harket



    All you folks back home
    I'll never tell you this
    You're not supposed to know
    where your daughter is
    There are ways of life
    you never understood
    it's right here
    downtown Hllywood
    it's afternoon on Sunset Boulevard
    I've got a stolen moment trying hard
    to write a kind of christmas card

    but I am burning out again
    tonight there is fever in my veins

    mama, dear
    all the love you gave
    I guess there's really nothing
    nothing much to save
    this place is as dirty as I feel myself
    there are still some riches
    at the Roosevelt
    that evening prayer
    those memories
    in my little bedroom, mama, on my knees
    that's where I'm at
    down in Los Angeles

    And I am burning out again
    and I must rise above the shame
    tonigh there is fever in my veins

    just think of the girl I used to be
    you were my age once, mama
    twenty-three
    I can still hear some of the songs you used to play
    from that summer of love in '68
    seems it's turned into a winter of hate

    and I am burning out again

    Composer(s): Curly Putman; Sonny Throckmorton
    Performer(s): Moe Bandy; Janie Fricke; John Prine



    It's a cheatin' situation
    A stealin' invitation
    To take what's not really ours
    And make it through the midnight hours

    It's a cheatin' situation
    Just a cheap imitation
    Doin' what we have to do
    When there's no love at home

    There's no use pretending there'll be a happy ending
    Where our love's concerned, sweetheart, we both know
    We'll take love where we find it, love and try to hide it
    It's all we got, for we know they're not gonna let us go

    It's a cheatin' situation
    A stealin' invitation
    To take what's not really ours
    And make it through the midnight hours

    It's a cheatin' situation
    Just a cheap imitation
    Doin' what we have to do

    It's a cheatin' situation
    When there's no love at home

    Burgundian Carol Composer(s): Oscar Brand Performer(s): The Weavers; Don McLean; Bronn Journey



    The winter season of the year
    When to this world our Lord was born
    The ox and donkey, so they say
    Did keep his holy presence warm
    How many oxen and donkeys now
    If they were there when first he came
    How many oxen and donkeys you know
    At such a time would do the same?

    And on that night it has been told
    These humble beasts so rough and rude
    Throughout the noght of holy birth
    Drank no water, ate no food
    How many oxen and donkeys now
    If they were there when first he came
    How many oxen and donkeys you know
    At such a time would do the same?

    As soon as to these humble beasts
    Appeared our Lord, so mild and sweet
    With joy they knelt before his Grace
    And gently kissed His tiny feet
    How many oxen and donkeys now
    Dressed in ermine, silk and such
    How many oxen and donkeys you know
    At such a time would do as much?

    It's A Bore
    Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner; Frederick Loewe
    Performer(s): Louis Jourdan (Gaston) & Maurice Chevalier (Uncle Honoré)



    H: Look at all the captivating fascinating things there are to do
    G: Name two.
    H: Look at the pleasures of the myriad of treasures we have got
    G: Like what?
    H: Look at Paris in the spring
    when each solitary thing
    is more beautiful than ever before!
    You can hear every tree almost saying "Look at me!"
    G: What color are the trees?
    H: Green!
    G: What color were they last year?
    H: Green!
    G: And next year?
    H: Green!
    G: It's a bore!
    H: Don't you marvel at the power
    of the mighty Eiffel Tower
    knowing there it will remain evermore?
    Climbing up to the sky over 90 stories high
    G: How many stories?
    H: 90
    G How many yesterday?
    H: 90
    G: And tomorrow?
    H: 90
    G: It's a bore!
    H: The River Seine!
    G: All it can do is flow
    H: But think of wine!
    G: It's red or white
    H: But think of girls!
    G: It's either yes or no
    and if it's no or if it's yes
    it simply couldn't matter less!
    H: But think of a race
    with your horse in seventh place
    and he suddenly begins and he catches up
    and wins with a roar!
    G: It's a bore!
    H: Life is thrilling as can be!
    G: Simply not my cup of tea
    H: It's a gay romantic fling!
    G: If you like that sort of thing
    H: It's intriguing!
    G: It's fatiguing!
    H: It's a game!
    G: It's the same dull world where ever you go
    whatever place you are at
    The earth is round but everything on it is flat
    H: Don't tell me Venice has no lure
    G: Just a town without a sewer
    H: The Leaning Tower I adore!
    G: Indecision is a bore!
    H: But think of the thrill of a bull fight in Seville
    when the bull is uncontrolled
    and he challenges the bold matador!
    G: It's a bore!
    H: Think of lunch beneath the trees!
    G: Stop the carriage if you please!
    H: You mean you don't want to come?
    G: The thought of lunch leaves me numb
    H: But I implore...!
    G: Oh, no, Uncle, it's a bore!




    (reprise)
    (Honoré, Gaston and Honore's valet)

    H: Just imagine her chagrin
    when she sees you wander in
    And you find her with that slippery senor
    What a moment supreme
    when she totters with a scream
    G: What will she do?
    H: Scream
    G: What did yours do?
    H: Scream
    G: What do they all do?
    H: Scream
    G: It's a bore!
    H: But think of the bliss
    of the pleasure you would miss
    When she topples in a heap
    And you leave her there to weep on the floor
    G: It's a bore!
    H: You must catch her if you can
    V: For the dignity of man!
    H: Take advantage of the chance
    V: You owe it, sir, to France!
    H & V: This is war!
    G: All right! But it's a bore!

    Buon Natale
    Composer(s): Nat King Cole; Bob Saffer
    Performer(s): Gene Autry;
    and various other artists



    Buon Natale, means Merry Christmas to you
    Buon Natale, to everyone
    Happy New Year and lots of fun
    Buon Natale may all your wishes come true
    Buon Natale in Italy means
    A Merry Christmas to you

    Far away across the sea
    In sunny Italy
    There's a quaint little town
    Not a clock has been wound
    For over a century

    They don't know the time or year
    And no one seems to care
    And this is the reason
    The Christmas season
    Is celebrated all year

    Buon Natale, means Merry Christmas to you
    Buon Natale, to everyone
    Happy New Year and lots of fun
    Buon Natale may all your wishes come true
    Buon Natale in Italy means
    A Merry Christmas to you

    It's A Boom
    Performer(s): Hazy Osterwald Sextett



    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom

    Why not get in on the boom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Pay no heed to tales of gloom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    We've no doubt, although our golds run out
    There'll be some more about to buy a foreign car

    Let's all get in on the graft
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    There won't be an overdraft
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Don't discount that there's a good amount on your expense account
    To cover caviar

    I hear from my broker when an issue is hot
    As always a shortage, there's no chance of being caught
    A small speculation on a piece of real estate
    Never brings profit if you wait

    So, why not get in on the boom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Have your sunken living room
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Here's your dutch, get in the local lodge
    Have a two-car garage and you'll be popular

    Some people cry
    Aye, aye, aye, aye
    That we're simpling seeing pie in the sky
    Aye, aye, aye, aye
    But as long as we are able to buy
    Aye, aye, aye, aye
    Who could find a single fault
    Drop the profits, profits, profits, profits, profits, profits

    We've got it made
    Aye, aye, aye, aye
    Though we might be stopping our coronade
    Aye, aye,aye,aye
    We've no worries on the salaries we're paid
    We just take you to the vaults
    Profits, profits, profits, profits, profits, profits, profits

    Why not get in on the boom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Pay no heed to tales of gloom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Learn the facts how every stock transacts and that your income tax
    Don't play it by the rules

    Why not get in on the graft
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    There won't be an overdraft
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    It's not hard, just use your credit card
    To fill up your backyard with private swimming pools

    I'm told by good friends, money won't buy me health
    But we were feeling that there are no ills in wealth
    One thing for certain, it's the only known cure
    To keep healthy men from feeling poor

    So, why not get in on the boom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Pay no heed to talk of doom
    It's a boom
    It's a boom
    Not your soul as much as your bankroll will help achieve your goal
    In modern times like these
    Not your soul as much as your bankroll will help achieve your goal
    In modern times like these

    Who cares about economies
    In such delightful times as these

    British-German Christmasnachten



    When the last Kalender-sheets
    Flattern through the winter-streets
    And Decemberwind is blowing
    Then is everybody knowing
    That it is not allzuweit
    She does come, the Weihnachtszeit

    All the Menschen, Leute, people
    Flippen out of ihr warm Stüble
    Run to Kaufhof, Aldi, Mess
    Make Konsum and business
    Kaufen this and jenes Dings
    And the churchturmglocke rings!

    Manche holen sich a Tännchen
    When this brennt, they cry "Attention!"
    Rufen for the Feuerwehr
    "Please, come quick to rescue her!"
    Goes the Tännchen off in Rauch
    They are standing on the Schlauch

    In the kitchen of the house
    Mother makes the Christmasschmaus
    She is working, schufting, bakes
    Hit is now her Yoghurtkeks
    And the Opa says als Tester
    "We are killed bis to Silvester!"

    Then he fills the last Glas wine
    Yes, this is the Christmastime!
    Day by day does so vergang
    And the Holy Night does come
    You can think, you can remember
    This is immer in December!

    Then the childrenlein are coming
    Candle-Wachs is abwärts running
    Bing of Crosby Christmas sings
    While the Towerglocke rings
    And the angels look so fine
    Well, this is the Weihnachtstime

    Baby-eyes are big and rund
    The family feels kerngesund
    When unterm Baum is hocking
    Then nothing can them shocking!
    They are happy, are so fine
    This happens in the Christmastime!

    The animals all in the house
    The Hund, the Katz, the bird, the mouse
    Are running round the Weihnachtstree
    Enjoy this day as never nie
    Weil they find Kittekat and Schappi
    Im Geschenkkarton von Pappi

    The family begins to sing
    And wieder does a Glöckchen ring
    Zum song vom grünen Tannenbaum
    The Tränen rennen down and down
    Bis mother plötzlich flennt
    "The Gans im Ofen brennt!"
    Her nose is very fine
    And that nicht nur at Christmastime

    It's A Blue World
    Composer(s): Robert Wright; Chet Forrest
    Performer(s): The Four Freshmen



    It's a blue world without you
    It's a blue world alone
    My days and nights that once were filled with heaven
    With you away, how empty they have grown

    It's a blue world from now on
    It's a blue world for me
    The sea, the sky, my heart and I
    We're all in an indigo hue

    Without you, it's a blue, blue world
    Without you, it's a blue, blue world

    Bring A Torch, Jeanette Isabella
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Ralph Carmichael



    Bring a torch, Jeanette Isabella
    Bring a torch, come swiftly and run
    Christ is born,
    tell the folk of the village
    Jesus is sleeping in His cradle
    Ah, ah, beautiful is the Mother
    Ah, ah, beautiful is her Son

    Hasten now, good folk of the village
    Hasten now, the Christ Child to see
    You will find Him asleep in the manger
    Quietly come and whisper softly
    Hush, hush, peacefully now He slumbers
    Hush, hush, peacefully now He sleeps
