Itchy Twitchy Feeling
Itchy Twitchy Feeling
Composer(s): Jimmy Oliver
Performer(s): Bobby Hendricks
and multiple other artists
Sittin' here wonderin' what it's all about
This rock and roll music that makes you shout
You tune in on Bandstand and they're jumpin' like mad
And they're dancin' they are doin', they don't look bad
You get that itchy twitchy feeling (itchy twitchy feeling)
You start-a rockin' and a-reelin' (rockin' and a-reelin')
Soon your arms and legs are flappin'
Like a hound dog mouth a-yappin'
You're-a rockin' and a-rollin'
You don't understand it but it sure feels nice
You thought you might try it 'bout-a once or twice
You started with the dance they call the stroll
But you felt much better doin' rock and roll
You get that itchy twitchy feeling (itchy twitchy feeling)
You start-a rockin' and a-reelin' (rockin' and a-reelin')
Soon your arms and legs are flappin'
Like a hound dog mouth a-yappin'
You're-a rockin' and a-rollin'
You come in the house with your hair on end
Nobody had to ask you where you been
You come in the house you're still a-jumpin' like mad
I've seen a lot of people with it but you got it bad
You get that itchy twitchy feeling (itchy twitchy feeling)
You start-a rockin' and a-reelin' (rockin' and a-reelin')
Soon your arms and legs are flappin'
Like a hound dog mouth a-yappin'
You're-a rockin' and a-rollin'
I don't understand it what you're goin' about
It must be something 'bout this music that I don't know
I went to a hop and it didn't take long
I got the feelin' somethin' was a goin' wrong
You get that itchy twitchy feeling (itchy twitchy feeling)
You start-a rockin' and a-reelin' (rockin' and a-reelin')
Soon your arms and legs are flappin'
Like a hound dog mouth a-yappin'
You're-a rockin' and a-rollin'
Soon your arms and legs are flappin'
Like a hound dog mouth a-yappin'
You're-a rockin' and a-rollin'
Soon your arms and legs are flappin'
Like a hound dog mouth a-yappin'
You're-a rockin' and a-rollin'

Behold A Branch Is Growing
Behold A Branch Is Growing
Behold a branch is growing
of lov'liest form and grace
as prophets sung, foreknowing
it springs from Jesse's race
and bears one little flow'r
in midst of coldest winter
at deepest midnight hour
Isaiah hath foretold it
in words of promise sure
and Mary's arms enfold it
a virgin meek and pure
Thro' God's eternal will
this child to her is given
at midnight calm and still
O savior, child of Mary
who felt our human woe
O savior, king of glory
who dost our weakness know
bring us at length, we pray
to the bright courts of heaven
and to the endless day

Dear Napoli, dear Napoli
And I seem to hear again in dreams
Her revelry, her sweet revelry

Bedtime For Toys
Bedtime For Toys
Composer(s): Ron Miller; Orlando Murden
Performer(s): Stevie Wonder
Close your eyes, beddy bye tin soldier
Mommy says that it's time for sleep
If my folks were wiser and older
They'd know kids and toys don't need sleep
Don't be bad little cotton dolly
See how nice Mickey Mouse sleeps now?
Even my brass drummer boy has stopped all his noise
'Cause he knows it's past bedtime for toys
Ya know, every Christmas Santa Claus goes all over the world with his reindeer
sled, and a big bag of toys and he'll come to your house this year too
But sometimes, just sometimes, he doesn't have enough time to see
every little boy and girl because the world is so big
So maybe we should sing a song for all the children that Santa didn't visit
Bless the child who has no tin soldier
No brass drummer boy to put to bed
He will still grow wiser and older
Loving one small rag doll instead
He won't have a cotton dolly
Mickey Mouse won't come to his house
Hold that rag doll to your heart, nothing can destroy
The beauty one shall find in one small toy

Italian Restaurant
Italian Restaurant
(French & Spanish Versions: Le Restaurant Italien (Dalida); El Restaurante Italiano (Dalida))
Composer(s): Jean-Michel Beriat - Jean-Pierre Goussaud - Newell
Performer(s): Dalida
Anytime that I`m feeling love
There`s a place that I love to go
A little castle in the sky
Where I can watch the world go by
A restaurant beneath the stars
With mandolines and soft guitarres
You meet the high life and the low
The most amusing place I know
When it`s time to wine and dine
There`s a favorite place of mine
Ring the Maître D'
Ask if maybe he
Can have a table free at nine
He`ll be there to welcome me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
You see the clientele walk in
And watch the cabaret begin
It`s such a special place to be
There is so much that you can see
You see the lover`s deep in dreams
And those who querrel making scenes
You see a maestro and the clown
And all the famous from the town
When it`s time to wine and dine
There`s a favorite place of mine
Ring the Maître D'
And ask if maybe he
Can have a table free at nine
He`ll be there to welcome me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
The pretty lady who appears
Is trying hard to hide the years
The gigolo who walks behind
Is only mindy on his mind
The movie star will always pose
To get the maximum applause
It`s like a circus everywhere
And so exciting to be there
When it`s time to wine and dine
There`s a favorite place of mine
Ring the Maître D'
And ask if maybe he
Can have a table free at nine
He`ll be there to welcome me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
My Italian restaurant
Gives me everything I want
La la la..
My Italian restaurant
Won`t you come along with me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be

Now is the time for sleigh bells to ring
Now is the time for children to sing
Now is the time for white Christmas for Bing
Because it's Christmas time

Now is the time to sing old Rudolph's Nose
Because it's Christmas time
Christmas time is a comin'
Santa's not far away
You can almost hear his ho ho ho
And the jingleing of his sleigh
Now is the time Christmas stories we will tell
Now is the time hang your stocking on the nail
Now is the time let us sing Jingle Bells
Because it's Christmas time
Christmas time is a comin'
Santa's not far away
You can almost hear his ho ho ho
And the jingleing of his sleigh

Italian Girls
Italian Girls
Composer(s): Rod Stewart; Ron Wood
Performer(s): Rod Stewart
I've got two and more to show
I was dreaming of a mobile
that couldn't be mine not without lyin'
Was I feeling kind a silly
when I stepped in soakin' beer down the cola machine
Oh, stayin' seventeen
Well she claimed she was a killer
and she owned a flood lit villa
a little aways from the main highway
Oh take me way down yonder
She was tall, thin and tarty
and she drove a Maserati
faster than sound
I was heaven bound
Although I must have looked a creep
in my army surplus jeep
Was I being too bold
before the night could get old
No, no, no, no
She proved me so wrong
Oh the Italian girls sometimes hold their religious habits
in front of your eyes, just to get you tied
Ah but not my little Bella 'cause I did not have to tell her
I'd rather you go with the morning sun, she made me so tired
She took me way, way, away down yonder
till I was gone with the morning sun on my back
Gotta get on back there soon as I can
Take me there
And I miss the girl so bad
She broke my heart
Gotta get on back there soon as I can
I miss the girl, I miss the girl, I miss the girl so bad
I was a lot better off

Performer(s): Plácido Domingo
and multiple other artists
Tonight the stars shine for the children
And light the way for dreams to fly
Tonight our love comes wrapped in ribbons
The world is right and hopes are high
And from a dark and frosted window
A child appears to search the sky
Because it's Christmas
Because it's Christmas
Tonight belongs to all the children
Tonight their joy rings through the air
And so, we send our tender blessings
To all the children ev'rywhere
To see the smiles and hear the laughter
A time to give, a time to share
Because it's Christmas
Because it's Christmas
For now and forever for all of the children
And for the children in us all
Tonight belongs to all the children
Tonight their joy rings through the air
And so, we send our tender blessings
To all the children ev'rywhere
To see the smiles and hear the laughter
A time to give, a time to share
Because it's Christmas
For now and forever
For all of the children
And for the children in us all

It Wouldn't Be The Same Without You
Composer(s): Jimmy Wakely; Fred Rose
First release by: Al Rogers
Covered by multiple other artists
I could wander the byways, rewander too
But it wouldn't be the same without you
Those familiair old places would just make me blue
'cause it wouldn't be the same without you
I wasted my love on a careless romance
But I'd do it again, if I had the chance
I could start my life over with somebody new
But it wouldn't be the same without you
I wasted my love on a careless romance
But I'd do it again, if I had the chance
I could start my life over with somebody new
But it wouldn't be the same without you

Oh beautiful star of Bethlehem
Shining far through shadows dim
Giving the light for those who long have gone
Guiding the wise men on their way
Unto the place where Jesus lay
Oh beautiful star of Bethlehem, shine on
Oh beautiful star, the hope of light
Guiding the pilgrims through the night
Over the mountains till the break of dawn
Into the land of perfect day
It will give out a lovely ray
Oh beautiful star of Bethlehem, shine on
Oh beautiful star (Beautiful, beautiful star)
Of Bethlehem (Star of Bethlehem)
Shine upon us until the glory dawn
Give us a lamp to light the way
Unto the land of perfect day
Oh beautiful star of Bethlehem, shine on
Oh beautiful star, the hope, the grace
For the redeemed, the good and the blessed
Yonder in glory when the crown is worn
Jesus is now the star divine
Brighter and brighter He will shine
Oh beautiful star of Bethlehem, shine on
Oh beautiful star (Beautiful, beautiful star)

Shine upon us until the glory dawn

Composer(s): Bix Reichner; Fritz Schulz-Reichel; Carl Sigman
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra; Alura Mack
It worries me
You seem to be unhappy, and that worries me
I hate to think that maybe I have made you blue
Just what did I do, was I mean to you, wish I knew
I worry so
If anything is wrong, I have the right to know
So while I hold you close and kiss you tenderly
Tell it all to me, darling can't you see
Anything that worries you, worries me

Beautiful Star
Beautiful Star
Composer(s): Eliza E. Hewitt
The wise men of old saw a beautiful star
Led on by its glory they traveled afar
O'er mountain and valley 'til wanderings past
Their gifts at the feet of the Savior they cast
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Scatter the shadows of sin far away
Lead us to Jesus, the Star of the day
The star of the East was the herald of day
The light everlasting that fades not away
Its beams rising higher, O hasten and see
The Light of the world shines for you and for me
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Scatter the shadows of sin far away
Lead us to Jesus, the Star of the day
The star of His Word guards His people today
To sweet joy in Jesus, 'tis leading the way
Then still let us follow and lovingly bring
Our hearts and our offerings to Jesus our King
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Scatter the shadows of sin far away
Lead us to Jesus, the Star of the day
To those who in darkness are straying afar
We'll show the pure rays of the beautiful star
We'll tell them of Jesus, that at His dear feet
The saved of all nations shall joyfully meet
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Beautiful, beautiful star of the East
Scatter the shadows of sin far away
Lead us to Jesus, the Star of the day

Beautiful Christmas
Beautiful Christmas
Composer(s): Mary B. Slade - Rigdon McIntosh
O'er the hills and adown the snowy dells
As the echoes ring of the Christmas bells
Angel songs in our hearts resound again
Singing peace on earth and good will to men
Bring pine and fir tree, weave the garlands bright
Gladden the temple of the King tonight
Christmas is here, fill it with cheer
Make it glorious with joy and light
Bring good will to the suffering and sad
Speak the tender word that shall make them glad
Tell them how, o'er the hills of Bethlehem
When the angels sang, 'twas good news for them
Bring pine and fir tree, weave the garlands bright
Gladden the temple of the King tonight
Christmas is here, fill it with cheer
Make it glorious with joy and light
Peace on earth, bid all strife and tumult cease
For this night again gives the Lord His peace
While our hands shall His temple beautify
Carol, glory be unto God most high
Bring pine and fir tree, weave the garlands bright
Gladden the temple of the King tonight
Christmas is here, fill it with cheer
Make it glorious with joy and light
So glad hearts on this happy Christmas night
Bring your gifts of love, make His altar bright
Sing glad songs that shall sweetly sound as when
Angels sang of peace and good will to men
Bring pine and fir tree, weave the garlands bright
Gladden the temple of the King tonight
Christmas is here, fill it with cheer
Make it glorious with joy and light

Someone said that in each life some rain is bound to fall
And each one sheds his share of tears
And trouble troubles us all
But the hurt can't hurt forever
And the tears are sure to dry
And it won't rain always
The clouds will soon be gone
The sun that they've been hiding has been there all along
And it won't rain always
God's promises are true
The sun's gonna shine in His own good time
And He will see you through

Be A Child At Christmas Time
Composer(s): Martin Broones - William A. Luce
Performer(s): Doris Day
Be a child at Christmas time with a merry heart aglow
Through a frosty window pane you can see the falling snow
Trim the tree with candy canes
Listen to the church bell chime
Say a little prayer at night
Be a child at Christmas time
Only children understand what a merry heart can do
Be a child and you'll agree everything is bright and new
When the snow comes dancing down and you hear the church bell chime
Let your heart be young again
Be a child at Christmas time

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

Brand new pup, stocking up

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

Barnyard Christmas, Barnyard Christmas
We want to wish you a Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year!
