    It's Four In The Morning
    Composer(s): Jerry Chesnut
    Performer(s): Faron Young - 1971
    and multiple other artists



    It's four in the morning and once more the dawning
    Just woke up the wanting in me
    Wishin' I'd never met her, knowing if I forget her
    How much better off she would be
    The longer I hold on, the longer this goes on
    The harder that it's going to be
    But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
    Just woke up the wanting in me
    I'd never desert her, God knows when I hurt her
    That's the last thing that I want to do
    She tries, but she can't tell how she feels
    But I know, too well, just what she's going through
    If I love her so much, I don't know why I can't do
    The right thing and just let her be
    But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
    Just woke up the wanting in me
    Last night I told her, "This time it's all over"
    Making two times I've told her goodbye
    Last night, we broke up, this morning I woke up
    And for the fifth time, I'm changing my mind
    I saw more love in her eyes when I left her
    Than most foolish men will ever see
    An' it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
    Just woke up the wanting in me
    It's four in the morning and once more the dawning
    Just woke up the wanting in me
    Wishin' I'd never met her...

    Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat

    Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat
    Please put a penny in the old man's hat
    Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat

    Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat

    Christmas In Your Arms Composer(s): Bill Anderson - Steve Wariner Performer(s): Alabama; Bill Anderson; Steve Wariner



    All my friends are asking me
    where I plan to spend the holidays
    People seem to celebrate the season in so many different ways
    Some go where the weather's freezing cold while others like it warm
    I don't care about the weather, just whether I spend Christmas in your arms

    We could drive up to the mountains, build a fire and watch it snow
    We could sail down to the islands where the gentle breezes blow
    I'd be happy in the city, I'd be happy on the farm
    I don't care where I spend Christmas, as long as I spend Christmas in your arms

    It was only last December I had no Christmas spirit in my heart
    My world lay cold and shattered in the ashes of a dream that fell apart
    But now you're here beside me, no greater gift is wrapped beneath my tree
    And the arms you wrap around me and the precious gift of love you give to me

    We could drive up to the mountains, build a fire and watch it snow
    We could sail down to the islands where the gentle breezes blow
    I'd be happy in the city, I'd be happy on the farm
    I don't care whre I spend Christmas, as long as I spend Christmas in your arms

    I don't care where I spend Christmas, as long as I spend Christmas in your arms

    Covered by multiple other artists



    I'd say some day
    I'm bound to give my heart away
    When I do, it's for you
    Love, true love
    Seems to be all I'm thinking of
    But it's true, it's for you

    They said that love was a lie
    Told me that I should never try to find
    Somebody who'd be kind, kind to only me
    So I just tell them, they're right
    Who wants a fight?
    Tell them, I quite agree, nobody'd love me
    Then I look at you
    And love comes, love shows
    I give my heart and no-one knows that I do
    It's for you, it's for you

    They said that love was a lie
    Told me that I should never try to find
    Somebody who'd be kind, kind to only me
    So I just tell them, they're right

    Tell them, I quite agree, nobody'd love me

    Christmas In Vegas
    Composer(s): Marc Almond
    Performer(s): Marc Almond



    Well I just can't explain
    The despair that I feel
    As the wheel goes round, and round, round
    Now I must return to the city of steel
    Put my feet on the ground, the ground, ground
    In Las Vegas there are no clocks
    The time goes slow, so slow
    My future's mapped out in the cards
    And I feel so low, so low
    Now we're in the season
    Of love and goodwill
    But the wheel still goes round, and round, round
    But there's love in my heart (love in my heart)
    Goodwill in my soul (goodwill in my soul)
    I'm here on my own
    There's nothing so lonely
    As Christmas in Vegas (Christmas in Vegas)
    The lights of Las Vegas
    Hold no magic for me
    No real substitute
    For the lights on a tree
    One day I'll return
    To the city of steel
    For roulette and blackjack
    And a the spin of the wheel
    At the table I've seen men's fortunes
    Come and go and go
    I've seen my future in the cards
    And I feel so low, so low
    Now we're in the season
    Of love and goodwill
    But the wheel still goes round, and round, round
    But there's love in my heart (love in my heart)
    Goodwill in my soul (goodwill in my soul)
    I'm here on my own
    There's nothing so lonely
    As Christmas in Vegas (Christmas in Vegas)
    I'm here on my own
    So please won't you phone me
    This Christmas in Vegas
    I'm so lonely, this Christmas in Vegas
    Please won't you phone me, this Christmas in Vegas
    I'm so lonely, won't you phone me
    Now I need you, this Christmas in Vegas
    Why don't you phone me
    Wouldn't it be nice if we both have thrown different dice

    It's Foolish But It's Fun
    Composer(s): Gus Kahn; Robert Stolz
    Performer(s): Deanna Durbin
    and multiple other artists



    I love to climb an apple tree
    Though apples green are bad for me
    And I'll be sick as I can be
    It's foolish but it's fun

    While wise men seek your time and space
    And get all wrinkled in the face
    From loafing in some shady place
    It's foolish but it's fun

    If it should ever come to pass
    That I inherit wealth
    I'll eat and drink and drink and eat
    Until I wreck my health

    I love to ramble over lea
    And chase the busy bumble bee
    Though the bee may light on me
    It's foolish but it's fun

    When thunder storms put folks to rout
    And no one dares to venture out
    That's when I love to slosh about
    It's foolish but it's fun

    I like to be on friendly terms
    With pollywogs and mangle worms
    And all the very deadly germs
    It's foolish but it's fun

    I love to sit beside a brook
    And wait for fish to bite
    And though they never do
    It's nice to think perhaps they might

    While others climb the mountains High
    Beneath the tree I love to lie
    And watch the snails go whizzing by
    It's foolish but it's fun

    I want to sing, I want to waltz
    My heart is doing somersaults
    I love this world with all its faults
    It's foolish but it's fun

    I want to walk a garden wall
    Especially a wall that's tall
    And if I fall, I fall that's all
    It's foolish but it's fun

    I want to climb a steeple
    And I want to ring a bell
    So I can tell the people
    That I like them all so well

    The grass is green, the sky is blue
    The cows go moo, the cuckoos coo
    I want to be a cuckoo too
    It's cuckoo but it's fun

    Christmas In The Trenches
    Composer(s): John McCutcheon
    Performer(s): John McCutcheon;
    and various other artists



    My name is Francis Tolliver, I come from Liverpool
    Two years ago the war was waiting for me after school
    To Belgium and to Flanders, to Germany to here
    I fought for King and country I love dear

    'Twas Christmas in the trenches, where the frost so bitter hung
    The frozen fields of France were still, no Christmas song was sung
    Our families back in England were toasting us that day
    Their brave and glorious lads so far away

    I was lying with my messmate on the cold and rocky ground
    When across the lines of battle came a most peculiar sound
    Says I, "Now listen up, me boys!" each soldier strained to hear
    As one young German voice sang out so clear

    "He's singing bloody well, you know!" my partner says to me
    Soon, one by one, each German voice joined in harmony
    The cannons rested silent, the gas clouds rolled no more
    As Christmas brought us respite from the war

    As soon as they were finished and a reverent pause was spent
    "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" struck up some lads from Kent
    The next they sang was "Stille Nacht"
    "`Tis `Silent Night'," says I
    And in two tongues one song filled up that sky

    "There's someone coming toward us!" the front line sentry cried
    All sights were fixed on one long figure trudging from their side
    His truce flag, like a Christmas star, shown on that plain so bright
    As he, bravely, strode unarmed into the night

    Soon one by one on either side walked into No Man's Land
    With neither gun nor bayonet we met there hand to hand
    We shared some secret brandy and we wished each other well
    And in a flare-lit soccer game we gave 'em hell

    We traded chocolates, cigarettes, and photographs from home
    These sons and fathers far away from families of their own
    Young Sanders played his squeezebox and they had a violin
    This curious and unlikely band of men

    Soon daylight stole upon us and France was France once more
    With sad farewells we each prepared to settle back to war
    But the question haunted every heart that lived that wonderous night
    "Whose family have I fixed within my sights?"

    'Twas Christmas in the trenches where the frost, so bitter hung
    The frozen fields of France were warmed as songs of peace were sung
    For the walls they'd kept between us to exact the work of war
    Had been crumbled and were gone forevermore

    My name is Francis Tolliver, in Liverpool I dwell
    Each Christmas come since World War I, I've learned its lessons well
    That the ones who call the shots won't be among the dead and lame
    And on each end of the rifle we're the same

    Composer(s): Richard Rogers; Lorenz Hart
    First performance by: Bing Crosby - 1935
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Your sweet expression
    The smile you gave me
    The way you looked when we met
    It's easy to remember
    But so hard to forget
    I hear you whisper
    "I'll always love you"
    I know it's over, and yet
    It's easy to remember
    But so hard to forget
    So I must dream
    To have your hand caress me
    Fingers press me tight
    I'd rather dream
    Than have that lonely feeling
    Stealing through the night
    Each little moment
    Is clear before me
    And though it brings me regret
    It's easy to remember
    But so hard to forget

    Christmas In The Northwest
    Composer(s): Brenda Kutz White
    Performer(s): Brenda White



    The wind may not blow
    Might not even snow
    But there's nothing like Christmas
    Right here at home

    It may not be white
    Might be a rainy night
    But there's nothing like sharing
    The sounds and the sights of ...

    Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a gift that we can share
    Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a child's answered prayer

    Take away the presents
    And they still will have a dream
    For Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a gift God wrapped in green

    That first Christmas night
    Under just one light
    In a small town, a child came down
    The Father's gift of love and life

    And so, I dedicate this prayer
    To the children in our care
    That we teach them of the gifts of love
    He has planted everywhere
    Just like ...

    Christmas in the Northwest
    It's a gift that we can share
    Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a child's answered prayer

    If you take away the presents
    Why, they still will have a dream
    For Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a gift God wrapped in green

    And I know it may not turn out white
    But it's still 'silent night'
    So gather those you love
    And tell the story of the gift of living
    Believe we see from the one who's giving
    Giving us ...

    Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a gift that we can share
    Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a child's answered prayer

    And even if you take away the presents
    Why still would have a dream
    For Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a gift God wrapped in green

    That God wrapped up in green

    Christmas in the Northwest
    Is a gift God wrapped up in green

    It's Easy

    Performer(s): Boston



    Hey
    I’ve got no place to be
    And no one I’d rather see
    I won’t mind if you can find
    The time to stay with me
    Oh I’ve got no time for wastin’
    Gotta live a life when I can
    I won’t hide if you decide
    To let me be your man

    Cause when I get close to you, not much to say
    I get that same old feeling I had in my younger days

    And I can show you the way
    It’s just a game we play
    It’s easy, takin’ it day by day

    Hey
    You know I would concede
    And I think we both agree
    You and I can testify
    That love is what we need
    Just take a look around you, livin’ for the future is blind
    I believe what we can achieve will soon be left behind

    The things I try to say are so hard to find
    When you doubt what your love is about let me ease you mind

    And I can show you the way
    It’s just a game we play
    It’s easy, takin’ it day by day

    Hey
    I’ve got no place to be
    And no one I’d rather see
    I won’t mind if you find
    That you’re in love with me
    Well we got no time to worry
    Gotta live a life when I can
    I won’t hide if you decide
    To let me be your man

    And I can show you the way
    It’s just a game we play
    It’s easy, takin’ it day by day

    Composer(s): John Prine

    and multiple other artists



    It was Christmas in prison
    and the food was real good
    we had turkey and pistols
    carved out of wood
    and I dream of her always
    even when I don't dream
    her name's on my tongue
    and her blood's in my stream
    Wait awhile eternity
    old mother nature's got nothing on me
    come to me
    run to me
    come to me, now
    we're rolling
    my sweetheart
    we're flowing
    by God!
    Wait awhile eternity
    old mother nature's got nothing on me
    come to me
    run to me
    come to me, now
    we're rolling
    my sweetheart
    we're flowing
    by God!
    She reminds me of a chess game
    with someone I admire
    or a picnic in the rain
    after a prairie fire
    her heart is as big
    as this whole goddamn jail
    and she's sweeter than saccharine
    at a drug store sale
    Wait awhile eternity
    old mother nature's got nothing on me
    come to me
    run to me
    come to me, now
    we're rolling
    my sweetheart
    we're flowing
    by God!
    The search light in the big yard
    swings round with the gun
    and spotlights the snowflakes
    like the dust in the sun
    it's Christmas in prison
    there'll be music tonight
    I'll probably get homesick
    I love you
    Goodnight
    Wait awhile eternity
    old mother nature's got nothing on me
    come to me
    run to me
    come to me, now
    we're rolling
    my sweetheart
    we're flowing
    by God!

    It's Easter Time
    Composer(s): Meredith Wilson
    Performer(s): Perry Como



    It's Easter time
    the bells on the hill are ringing
    ringing once again
    There's a smile on the face of this weary world
    that seems to say "amen"

    It's Easter time
    the bonnets are gaily nodding
    nodding to and fro
    While the folks walk to church
    as they did so long ago!

    And there's a basket
    on the dining room table
    with fancy Easter eggs for all
    And there's a Lilly in all it's glory
    waiting in the hall . . .

    It's Easter time
    the dawn of the year is shining
    in the hearts of men
    With the joys and the hopes
    that have risen once again!

    (And there's a basket
    on the dining room table
    with fancy Easter eggs for all . . .)

    And there's a Lilly in all it's glory
    waiting in the hall . . .

    It's Easter time
    the dawn of the year is shining
    in the hearts of men
    With the joys and the hopes
    that have risen once again!

    ( It's Easter time . . . ) It's Easter time, again!

    The Angels Listened In
    Composer(s): Sid Faust - Billy Dawn Smith
    Performer(s): The Crests



    The angels listened in, when they heard me praying
    The angels listened in, when they heard me saying
    "Please send me someone to love"
    "Send the one I'm thinking of"
    My darling, the angels sent you

    The angels listened in, when they heard me crying
    The angels listened in, there's no denying
    They sent one with lovers charms
    One who really thrills my arms
    My darling, when the angels sent you

    I searched everywhere
    Just to find someone who cares
    They came down to interrupt
    Just as I had given up

    The angels listened in and brought you near me
    The angels listened in, I love them dearly
    They gave me the whole wide world
    Wrapped up in one little girl
    My darling, when the angels sent you

    Oh-woh-woh-woh-woh
    Oh-woh-ooh-ooh...

    It's Diff'rent Now
    Composer(s): Clive Westlake
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley



    I look at you and tell myself
    How wonderful you are
    You're so different now
    To me you're much more wonderful, more wonderful by far
    Yes, you're different now
    There's more to love than holding hands and stealing kisses
    When there's no-one else around
    There's the good times and the bad
    There's the ups and downs we've had
    But it's different now,
    I'm so glad I still have you

    There's always something new to see
    I look at you, you look at me
    And we're so different now
    Love gets better every day 'n in some peculiar way
    It's always different now
    If we ever say goodbye, you'd be lost
    And so would I, what's the difference now
    Between us
    Love just for a day
    And a love that's here to stay
    That's the difference now, the difference now

    Lah lah lah, lah lah lah lah ...

    Christmas In My Soul
    Composer(s): Laura Nyro
    Performer(s): Laura Nyro



    Come young braves
    Come young children
    Come to the book of love with me
    Respect your brothers and your sisters
    Come to the book of love
    I know it ain't easy
    But we're gonna look for a better day
    Come young braves
    Come young children

    I love my country as it dies
    In war and pain before my eyes
    I walk the streets where disrespect has been
    The sins of politics, the politics of sin
    The heartlessness that darkens my soul
    On Christmas

    Red and silver on the leaves
    Fallen white snow runs softly through the trees
    Madonnas weep for wars of hell
    They blow out the candles and haunt Noel
    The missing love that rings through the work
    On Christmas

    Black panther brothers bound in jail
    Chicago seven and the justice scale
    Homeless Indian on Manhattan Isle
    All God's sons have gone to trial
    And all God's love is out of style
    On Christmas

    Christmas in my soul
    Christmas in my soul
    Christmas in my soul

    It's De-Lovely
    Composer(s): Cole Porter
    First performance by: Ethel Merman & Bob Hope - 1936
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Billy:
    The night is young, the skies are clear
    So if you want to go walking, dear
    It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
    I understand the reason why
    You're sentimental, 'cause so am I
    It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
    You can tell at a glance
    What a swell night this is for romance
    You can hear dear Mother Nature
    Murmuring low
    "Let yourself go!"
    So please be sweet, my chickadee
    And when I kiss you, just say to me
    "It's delightful, it's delicious
    It's delectable, it's delirious
    It's dilemma, it's delimit, it's deluxe
    It's de-lovely"

    Hope:
    I feel a sudden urge to sing
    The kind of ditty that invokes the spring

    Billy:
    I'll control my desire to curse
    While you crucify the verse

    Hope:
    This verse I started seems to me
    The Tin-Pantithesis of a melody

    Billy:
    So spare us all the pain
    Just skip the darn thing and sing the refrain...

    Hope:
    Mi, mi, mi, mi
    Re, re, re, re
    Do, sol, mi, do, la, si

    The night is young, the skies are clear
    So if you want to go walking, dear
    It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
    I understand the reason why
    You're sentimental, 'cause so am I
    It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
    You can tell at a glance
    What a swell night this is for romance
    You can hear dear Mother Nature
    Murmuring low
    "Let yourself go!"

    Billy:
    So please be sweet, my chickadee
    And when I kiss you, just say to me
    "It's delightful, it's delicious
    It's...It's de-lovely"

    Christmas In Killarney Composer(s): James Cavanaugh - John Redmond - Frank Weldon Performer(s): Dennis Day and multiple other artists



    The holly green, the ivy green
    The prettiest picture you've ever seen
    Is Christmas in Killarney
    With all of the folks at home

    It's nice, you know, to kiss your beau
    While cuddling under the mistletoe
    And Santa Claus you know, of course
    Is one of the boys from home

    The door is always open
    The neighbors pay a call
    And Father John before he's gone
    Will bless the house and all

    How grand it feels to click your heels
    And join in the fun of the jigs and reels
    I'm handing you no blarney
    The likes you've never known
    Is Christmas in Killarney
    With all of the folks at home

    It's Dark On Observatory Hill
    Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Harold Spina
    Performer(s): Ray Conniff
    and multiple other artists



    It's dark on observatory hill
    Come on, let's pretend we're Jack and Jill
    We'll stroll to the hilltop where college sweethearts go
    And look at the lights on the campus down below

    We'll learn what astronomy is for
    We'll learn what the stars can have in store
    We'll know in advance the moon may mean romance
    When it's dark on observatory hill

    And I'd like to recite you a poem that I wrote
    It tells why I think you're wonderful
    Then from afar we can hear a sweet guitar
    While voices are harmonizing

    We don't have to know arithmetic
    To figure why you and I would click
    My heart tells me this: your lips were meant to kiss
    When it's dark on observatory hill

    Christmas In July Composer(s): Jen Leigh - Jeffrey Barnes Performer(s): Brave Combo



    The president was passing laws
    Gave a call to Santa Claus
    He said, "Get that toy machine on high
    Economy is in a slump
    I know what could pick it up
    This year let's have Christmas in July"

    Oh, we'll have a Christmas, a summer Christmas
    We'll have one fine fun-time unwinding
    In the sunshine Christmas
    Oh, we'll spend yuletide, down by the poolside
    This year let's have Christmas in July

    I'm dreamin' of a hot Christmas
    Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells on the ice cream truck
    Rudolf, the sunburned reindeer
    Have yourself a very steamy Christmas

    Who says Christ was a Capricorn?
    Maybe He perhaps was born
    On the hottest Sunday of the year
    His birthday might have been the time to be
    On the beach at Galilee
    Watching him change water into beer

    They'd have a Christmas, a summer Christmas
    You'd see the Lord could surf
    Without a surfboard Christmas
    Could it be possible? Check out the gospel
    This year let's have Christmas in July
