I've Never Been In Love Before
Composer(s): Frank Loesser
First performance by: Robert Alda & Isabel Bigley - 1950
Covered by multiple other artists



I've never been in love before
Now all at once it's you
it's you forever more...

I've never been in love before
I thought my heart was safe
I thought I knew the score

But this is wine that's all too strange and strong
I'm full of foolish song
and now my song must pour
so please forgive this helpless haze I'm in
I've really never been in love before

But this is wine that's all too strange and strong
I'm full of foolish song
and now my song must pour
so please forgive this helpless haze I'm in
I've really never been in love before

Hang Up The Baby's Stocking
Composer(s): Emily Huntington Miller; Hiram Murray Higgins



Hang up the baby's stocking
Be sure you don't forget!
The dear little dimpled darling
She never saw Christmas yet!
But I've told her all about it
And she opened her big blue eyes
And I'm sure she understood it
She looked so funny and wise

Dear, what a tiny stocking!
It doesn't take much to hold
Such little pink toe's as baby's
Away from the frost and the cold
But then, for the baby's Christmas
It will never do at all
Why! Santa wouldn't be looking
For anything half so small

I know what I will do for the baby
I've thought of the very best plan
I'll borrow a stocking of Grandma's
The longest that ever I can
And you'll hang it by mine, dear mother
Right here in the corner so!
And leave a letter to Santa
And fasten it in the toe

Write-this is the baby's stocking
That hangs in the corner here
You never have seen her, Santa
For she only came this year
But she's just the blessed'st baby
And now before you go
Just cram her stocking with goodies
From the top clean down to the toe!

City sidewalks and each country road sweet girl I've loved you all over the world

Hamburger Concerto: Well Done
Composer(s): Thijs Van Leer
Performer(s): Focus



O kerstnacht, schoner dan de dagen
Hoe kan Herodes het licht verdragen
Dat in uw duisternisse blinkt
En wordt gevierd en aangebeden
Zijn hoogmoed luistert naar geen reden
Hoe schel die in zijn oren klinkt
Hij tracht d'onozelen te vernielen
Door 't doden van onnozele zielen
En wekt een stad en landgeschrei
In Bethlehem en op de akker
En maakt de geest van Rachel wakker
Die waren gaat door beemd en hei

I've Loved These Days
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel



Now we take our time, so nonchalant
And spend our nights so bon vivant
We dress our days in silken robes
The money comes
The money goes
We know it's all a passing phase
We light our lamps for atmosphere
And hang out hopes on chandeliers
We're going wrong, we're gaining weight
We're sleeping long and far too late
And so it's time to change our ways
But I've loved these days
Now as we indulge in things refined
We hide our hearts from harder times
A string of pearls, a foreign car
Oh we can only go so far
On caviar and cabernet
We drown our doubts in dry champagne
And soothe our souls with fine cocaine
I don't know why I even care
We get so high and get nowhere
We'll have to change our jaded ways
But I've loved these days
So before we end and then begin
We'll drink a toast to how it's been
A few more hours to be complete
A few more nights on satin sheets
A few more times that I can say
I've loved these days

Hail! Ever Hail



Hail! ever hail! auspicious morn
The brightest since our fall
Mortals, exult! the Saviour's born
O crown him Lord of all!

Down from celestial climes of day
He hastes to tread our ball
Glory illumines all the way
O crown him Lord of all!

Hark! loud hosannahs from the song
The melting airs inthrall
A Saviour angels waft along
And shout him Lord of all

Wrapt in their folded vests of light
They seek the sordid stall
Gaze with emotions of delight
And own him Lord of all

Shepherds, to you a herald flies
Obey the early call
Immanuel in a manger lies
Go crown him Lord of all

He comes, he comes, our world to bless
To ransom every soul
From shades of endless wretchedness
O crown him Lord of all!

The sceptre, robe, and throne prepare
Attend, ye great and small
With acclamations rend the air
And crown him Lord of all

As It Fell Out One May Morning

I've Got Tears In My Ears (From Lyin' On My Back In My Bed While I Cry Over You)
Performer(s): Harold Barlow



I've got tears in my ears from lyin' on my back
In my bed while I cry over you
And the tears in my ears, they're off the beaten track
Since you said "It's goodbye, we are through"
So if I should get water on the brain
You will know you're the one who is to blame
I've got tears in my ears from lyin' on my back
In my bed while I cry over you

I've got tears in my ears from lyin'on my back
In my bed while I cry over you
I've been cryin' these tears and soakin' in my sack
Since the day I found you were untrue
And if I don't get up pretty soon
I'll turn into a sleepy lagoon
I've got tears in my ears from lyin' on my back
In my bed while I cry over you

I've got tears in my ears from lyin' on my back
In my bed while I cry over you
It's been so many years, my sacroiliac
Feels as though it's been soaked through and through
Oh, you lied when you said we'd take the plunge
Now I know how it feels to be a sponge
I've got tears in my ears from lyin' on my back
In my bed while I cry over you

I've Got So Much To Give
Composer(s): Barry White
Performer(s): Barry White; Walter Chancellor Jr.



Don't do that
Baby, please don't do that
What are you crying for
Is it because you're sad or mad or
Nothing's gonna go wrong
Sometimes we feel inside of us that
That everything we have is only here for today
But every now and then two people get lucky
And find that certain thing that make them want to
Just keep it, just keep it that way
I don't want you to feel that
That you have to go through these changes when
Knowing no way
I know that our love is different
Our lives will be different
Trust me, baby, trust me

Now that I'm here no more tears
Come here, come here
And you won't find things that broke your heart
And blew your mind
Not here, no, not here

And my, oh, my
Girl, can't you see, can't you see that I
I've got so much to give to you, my dear
It's gonna take a lifetime, it's gonna take years

To you my dear I've got so much to give
It's gonna take my lifetime
It's gonna take years and years and years and years

And I'll fill you in your hopes and dreams
Believe me, girl, you got everything
Right here, right here
No one could offer you more
Than the love I have for you in store
It's here, oh, oh, yeah

And my, oh, my
Honey, can't you see, can't you see that I
I got so much to give to you my dear
It's gonna take a lifetime, it's gonna take years

To you my dear I've got so much to give
It's gonna take my lifetime
It's gonna take years and years and years and years

Believe me, baby
We found that certain thing
That certain feeling
That lets two people express themselves how they feel
Let your love flow inside of you
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, baby

Grown-Up Christmas List
Composer(s): David Foster; Linda Thompson-Jenner
Performer(s): Amy Grant
and multiple other artists



Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now
But still need help somehow
I'm not a chile but my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown-up christmas list
Not for myself, but for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Ev'ry one would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up christmas list...
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely wrapped beneash the tree
Well, heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal a hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Ev'ry one would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up christmas list...
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth!
There'd be...
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Ev'ry one would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up christmas list
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my Grown-up Christmas List!

I've Got Sand In My Shoes
Composer(s): Arthur Resnick; Kenny Young
Performer(s): The Drifters; Greyhound



Oh, the boardwalk's deserted 
There's nobody down by the sho-o-o-o-ore 
And the ferris wheel ride isn't turning around any m-o-ore-ore-ore 
The heat wave and the crowds are just old new-ooh-ews 
But I've still got some sand in my shoes 

(Sand in my shoes) 
Brings mem'ries of the salty air 
(Sand in my shoes) 
Whoa-uh-oh-oh the blanket that we used to share 
How we fell in love down by the sea-ee 
Come back to me (back to me, back to me) with the sand in my shoes 

Whoa, oh 
When the water was cold 
You would tremble and hold me so ti-i-i-i-ight 
And we'd sit on the beach just to wait for the stars to come out at
night 
The heat wave and the crowds are just old new-ooh-ews 
But I've still got some sand in my shoes 

(Sand in my shoes) 
Oh, brings mem'ries of the salty air 
(Sand in my shoes) 
Whoa-oh-uh-oh the blanket that we used to share 
How we fell in love down by the sea-ee 
Come back to me (back to me, back to me) with the sand in my shoes 

(Sand in my shoes) 
Whoa-uh-oh-oh 
(Sand in my shoes) 
Whoa, la, la, la, la, uh-whoa 
(Sand in my shoes)

Whoa-uh-oh-oh

Grandpa Got Run Over By A Beer Truck 
Composer(s): Lynn Coffey; Jim DeCaire; Joe Potila
Performer(s): Da Yoopers



Grandpa got run over by a beer truck
Coming out of woody's christmas day
Grandma got a job out at the brewery
I never knew that she could drive that way

Grandpa was out drinking with the floozies
Spending all of grandma's hard earned dough
He didn't have enough to pay the bar tab
So woody tossed him out into the snow

Grandpa stood there frozen in the head lights
He looked just as helpless as a deer
I don't think he was afraid of dying
I think he was afraid he'd spill his beer

Grandpa got run over by a beer truck
Coming out of woody's christmas day
Grandma got a job out at the brewery
I never knew that she could drive that way

Who'd have thought he'd end up as a road kill
She flattened him right out on the center line
He could have made it to the curb if he were quicker
But she backed it up and squashed him one more time

Grandma cried and cried at grandma's funeral
Not because we peeled him off the road
All the loot she got from his insurance
Went to pay the bar tab that he owed

Grandpa got run over by a beer truck
Coming out of woody's christmas day
Grandma got a job out at the brewery
I never knew that she could drive that way

I've Got No Strings

First recording: Buddy Clark & Orch. - 1939
Covered by multiple other artists



Pinocchio 
I've got no strings
To hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings
But now I'm free
There are no strings on me

Hi-ho the me-ri-o
That's the only way to go
I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me

(One sheet music version prints the bridge as this stanza)
Hi-ho the me-ri-o
I'm as happy as can be
I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me

I've got no strings
So I have fun
I'm not tied up to anyone
They've got strings
But you can see
There are no strings on me

Dutch puppet 
You have no strings
Your arms is free
To love me by the Zuider Zee
Ya, ya, ya
If you would woo
I'd bust my strings for you

French puppet 
You've got no strings
Comme ci comme ca
Your savoire-faire is ooh la la!
I've got strings
But entre nous
I'd cut my strings for you

Russian puppet 
Down where the Volga flows
There's a Russian rendezvous
Where me and Ivan go
But I'd rather go with you, hey!

Grandma Stuffed The Turkey (Then The Turkey Sure Stuffed Us)
Composer(s): Ronald J. Euliano



One day in late November
When the weather's cold and crisp
Our Thanksgiving Dinner at Grandma's
We won't miss
We're counting all our blessings
With that thankful attitude
Who do you think we're kidding?
We're really here for food!

Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us
Brussel sprouts, turnips
And her fresh cut asparagus
Her pumpkin and apple pies
Make with her famous crust
Yea, Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us

Now Grandma got her apron on
It's the only one she owns
Grandpa carves the turkey
Till there's no meat on the bones
Kids fighting for those drumsticks
And the wishbone to make a wish
With all that commotion
We keep fillin' up our dish

Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us
Brussel sprouts, turnips
And her fresh cut asparagus
Her pumpkin and apple pies
Make with her famous crust
Yea, Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us

Now the men are off the table
Because the football game is on
The women are in the kitchen
Yea, talking up a storm
The kids are running wild
Wrestling on the floor
The game is finally over
Yea, we can eat some more!

Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us
Brussel sprouts, turnips
And her fresh cut asparagus
Her pumpkin and apple pies
Make with her famous crust
Yea, Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us

Now things are always changing
But those turkeys stay the same
Our family keeps a growing
And Grandma's glad we came
Adding chairs around the table
Sometime two or three
Now with so many people
There's no leftovers left for me!

Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us
Brussel sprouts, turnips
And her fresh cut asparagus
Her pumpkin and apple pies
Make with her famous crust
Yea, Grandma stuffed the turkey
Then the turkey sure stuffed us

You said before we met
That your life was awful tame
Well, I took you to a night club
And the whole band knew your name 
Oh
Well, baby, baby, baby
I've Got News For You
Oh, somehow your story don't ring true

'Cause you took the wrong express

With your lipstick all a mess
Oh, let me say to you little mama
Wo, I've Got News for you
Ah, your story don't ring true lil girl
Yeah, I've got news for you

Claimed it was from Uncle Joe

Let me tell you, oh

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer
(Dutch Version: Bomma Is Overreeje Deur De Kerstman)

Performer(s): Elmo & Patsy
and multiple other artists



Grandma got run over by a reindeer 
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

She'd been drinkin' too much egg nog
And we'd begged her not to go
But she'd left her medication 
So she stumbled out the door into the snow

When they found her Christmas mornin'
At the scene of the attack
There were hoof prints on her forehead
And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Now were all so proud of Grandpa
He's been takin' this so well
See him in there watchin' football
Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Mel

It's not Christmas without Grandma
All the family's dressed in black 
And we just can't help but wonder 
Should we open up her gifts or send them back?

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Now the goose is on the table 
And the pudding made of fig
And a blue and silver candle
That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig

I've warned all my friends and neighbours
Better watch out for yourselves" 
They should never give a license
To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walkin' home from our house, Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa 
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Performer(s): Buck Owens



We're packin' up our clothes and we're goin'
We're headin' out to some place where it's snowin'
Cause for you and for me and the kids there's gonna be
A good old fashioned country Christmas

Some folks enjoy Christmas in the city
To them downtown shopping seems all pretty
But for you and for me and the kids there's gonna be
A good old fashioned country Christmas

Well we'll chop some fire wood and pop some popcorn for the Christmas tree
We'll hang our stockings on the meadow there for ol' Saint Nick to see
And when our happy holydays have ended we'll head back to the city quite contented
With our hearts full of peace and with happy memories
Of a good old fashioned country Christmas

Well we'll chop some fire wood and pop some popcorn for the Christmas tree
We'll hang our stockings on the meadow there for ol' Saint Nick to see
And when our happy holydays have ended we'll head back to the city quite contented
With our hearts full of peace and with happy memories
Of a good old fashioned country Christmas

I love the good old fashioned country Christmas

The snow is snowing, the wind is blowing
But I can weather the storm
What do I care how much it may storm
I've got my love to keep me warm

I can't remember a worse December
Just watch those icicles form
What do I care if icicles form
I've got my love to keep me warm

Off with my overcoat, off with my glove
I need no overcoat, I'm burning with love

My heart's on fire, the flame grows higher
So I will weather the storm
What do I care how much it may storm
I've got my love to keep me warm
