British-German Christmasnachten
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


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


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

Composer(s): John Rox
Performer(s): Wynn Murray & Walter Cassel
and multiple other artists
It's a big, wide, wonderful world you live in
When you're in love, you're a master
Of all you survey
You're a gay Santa Claus
There's a brave, new, star-spangled sky above you
When you're in love you're a hero
A Nero, Apollo
The Wizard of Oz
You've a kingdom, power and glory
The old, old, oldest of stories
Is new, true
You've built your Rome in just one day
Life is mystic
A mid-summer's night you live in
A Turkish delight, you're in heaven
It's swell when you're really in love
It's swell when you're really in love

Breath Of Heaven


Breath Of Heaven
Composer(s): Chris Eaton; Amy Grant
Performer(s): Amy Grant;
and various other artists
I have traveled many moonless nights
Cold and weary, with a babe inside
And I wonder what I've done
Holy Father, you have come
And chosen me now
To carry your son
I am waiting in a silent prayer
I am frightened by the load I bear
In a world as cold as stone,
Must I walk this path alone?
Be with me now
Be with me now
Breath of heaven
Hold me together
Be forever near me
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven
Light up my darkness
Pour over me your holiness
For you are holy
Do you wonder as you watch my face
If a wiser one one should have had my place
But I offer all I am
For the mercy of your plan
Help me be strong
Help me be
Help me
Breath of heaven
Hold me together
Be forever near me
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven
Light up my darkness
Pour over me your holiness
For you are holy
Breath of heaven
Hold me together
Be forever near me
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven
Light up my darkness
Pour over me your holiness
For you are holy
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven

Bonjour Noël
Bonjour Noël
Bonjour Noël, voici que dans les rues
La neige est revenue comme un tapis tout blanc
Bonjour Noël, bonjour belles vitrines
Qui le soir s'illuminent pour la joie des passants
Les petits nez s'écrasent pour mieux les admirer
Et les yeux pleins d'extase sont tout émerveillés
Bonjour Noël, chacun fait sa demande
Toutes les mains se tendent vers les jouets rêvés
Bonjour Noël, sonnez, sonnez les clochettes
C'est aujourd'hui la fête de la terre et du ciel
Petit Noël, j'ai vu des ta de choses
Pardonnez-moi si j'ose vous demander tout ça
Un long tunnel pour un train mécanique
Une boîte à musique, une poupée pour moi
Ils mettent leurs galoches près de la cheminée
Au loin sonnent les cloches
Il est minuit passé
Bonjour Noël, dormez chers petits anges
Soyez sages, en échange vous serez exaucés
Bonjour Noël, sonnez, sonnez les clochettes
C'est aujourd'hui la fête de la terre et du ciel
Joyeux Noël, bravo, j'ai ma toupie
Moi, ma poupée chérie, et moi, mon martinet
Joyeux Noël, dans l'arbre qui scintille
Toutes les bougies brillent quelle belle journée!
Dansons, dansons la ronde autour du grand sapin
Et dans le vaste monde, c'est le même refrain
Noël, Noël, c'est la joie sur la terre
C'est le cœur qui espère du bonheur pour chacun
Bonjour Noël, sonnez, sonnez les clochettes
C'est aujourd'hui la fête de la terre et du ciel
Bonjour Noël

It's A Big Old Goofy World


It's A Big Old Goofy World
Composer(s): John Prine
Performer(s): John Prine; Dylan Thomas Vance
Up in the morning
Work like a dog
Is better than sitting
Like a bump on a log
Mind all your manners
Be quiet as a mouse
Some day you'll own a home
That's as big as a house
I know a fella
He eats like a horse
Knocks his old balls
Round the old golf course
You oughta see his wife
She's a cute little dish
She smokes like a chimney
And drinks like a fish
There's a big old goofy man
Dancing with a big old goofy girl
Ooh baby
It's a big old goofy world
Now Elvis had a woman
With a head like a rock
I wished I had a woman
That made my knees knock
She'd sing like an angel
And eat like a bird
And if I wrote a song
She'd know ever single word
Kiss a little baby
Give the world a smile
If you take an inch
Give 'em back a mile
Cause if you lie like a rug
And you don't give a damn
You're never gonna be
As happy as a clam
So I'm sitting in a hotel
Trying to write a song
My head is just as empty
As the day is long
Why it's clear as a bell
I should have gone to school
I'd be wise as an owl
Stead of stubborn as a mule

It's A Beautiful Evening


It's A Beautiful Evening
Composer(s): Ray Rash; Dotty Wayne
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
and multiple other artists
And so it begins but you can't have them all
Your heart has to settle down somewhere and sure enough one night it happens
The crickets, the mockingbirds, the perfume in the air, it's all there
You get the feeling mother nature is working overtime and you say to yourself this is it
It's a beautiful evening, what a beautiful evening
It's a beautiful evening for falling in love
The moon winked his eye
The stars agree that this is the night for you and me
And as soft as a willow every cloud is our pillow
And all heaven and earth know what we're thinking of
And darling they're so right so kiss and hold me tight
It's a beautiful evening for falling in love
And darling they're so right so kiss and hold me tight
It's a beautiful evening for falling in love

Bobby Wants A Puppy Dog For Christmas


Bobby Wants A Puppy Dog For Christmas
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
Performer(s): Merle Haggard
Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas
I know you plan to bring electric trains
Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas
That's the only song we hear him sing
Santa, please remember Bobby's lonely
The closest neighbour's farm is quite a ways
And the country school don't have no children Bobby's size
And I'd like to give him something he can raise
And Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas
I know you plan to bring electric trains
But, Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas
And that's the only song we hear him sing
Butch and Susie won't be here for Christmas
And he won't see his cousins now till spring
If we can find a playmate he can play with
Santa, that'll be all you have to bring
And Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas
I know you plan to bring electric trains
But, Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas
That's the only song we hear him sing

Beautiful Day


Beautiful Day
Composer(s): Bono - The Edge - Adam Clayton - Larry Mullen
First release by: U2 - 2000
The heart is a bloom, shoots up through the stony ground
But there's no room, no space to rent in this town
You're out of luck and the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck and you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend to take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace
It's a beautiful day, the sky falls
You feel like it's a beautiful day
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road but you've got no destination
You're in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
You love this town even if it doesn't ring true
You've been all over and it's been all over you
It`s a beautiful day
Don`t let it get away
It`s a beautiful day
Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, I know I'm not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by clouds
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the bedouins fires at night
see the oil fields at first sight
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out
It was a beautiful day
A beautiful day
Don`t let it get away
Touch me, take me to that other place
Reach me, I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don`t have you don't need it now
You don't need it now, you don't need it now
Its a Beautiful day

Blue Christmas Tree


Blue Christmas Tree
Composer(s): Eddie Miller; Bob Morris
Performer(s): Buck Owens; Ernest Tubb
Green is the color and joy it should be
But I've got a blue blue Christmas tree
You took the happiness God gave you and me
And all you left for Christmas is a blue Christmas tree
Beneath it sets of package addressed to me from you
That I'm afraid to open I know it contains the blues
But merry Christmas darling wherever you may be
And I hope you will never have a blue Christmas tree
Beneath it sets of package addressed to me from you
That I'm afraid to open I know it contains the blues
But merry Christmas darling wherever you may be
And I hope you will never have a blue Christmas tree

It'll Take A Long Time


It'll Take A Long Time
Composer(s): Sandy Denny
Performer(s): Sandy Denny - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists
Oh it's like a storm at sea
And everything is lost
And the fretful sailors calling out their woes
As to the waves they're tossed
Oh they are all gentlemen
And never will they know
If there is a reason each of them must go
To join the cruel flow
And it'll take a long, long time
It'll take a long, long time
It'll take a long, long time
Oh it'll take such a long, long time
There is no need for rules
There's no-one to score the game
And there is nobody living in this town
As even knows its name
Oh it'll take such a long, long time
It'll take a long, long time
It'll take a long, long time
A long, long time

It'll Come Back


It'll Come Back
Composer(s): Glenn Martin
Performer(s): Red Sovine
On our little girls' third birthday
She got a sandbox in the backyard to play
Sand was everywhere as she played and she laughed
I fussed at her for it killed all my grass
It'll come back ...
It'll come back ...
Daddy dont be mad
God and the rain will bring it back
When our little girl just turned ten
She got a bike to ride with all her friends
She skinned both her knees as she played and she laughed
I fussed at her for it killed all my grass
When our little girl turned seventeen
We built her a pool in the backyard that spring
All her friends came and they swam and they splashed
I fussed at her for it killed all my grass
My wife and I sit on the porch all alone
As I look out across at my beautiful lawn
The house is quiet there's no children at play
And I said to my wife
"Honey, if you'll listen real close
You can still hear her say"
It'll come back (It'll come back)
It'll come back (It'll come back)
Daddy don't be mad
God and the rain will bring it back
It'll come back (It'll come back)
It'll come back (It'll come back)
Daddy don't be mad
God and the rain will bring it back

I'll have a Blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't mean a thing, if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start fallin'
That's when those blue memories start callin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
I'll have a Blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blu, blue Christmas

Down in the deep blue sea
I'm gonna look in the forest
And look and look in every tree

And if you find a funny face in your comic book
Baby it'll be me I'll be lookin' for you
(Well, keep on lookin')
I'm gonna look in the cities
Where the lights are blue
Gonna search the country side
And the haystacks too
Well if you see something shootin' out across the stars
If you see a rocket ship in it's way to Mars

Well, I'll be lookin' for you
