Jingle Bells
Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.
chorus: Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, O
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank
And there we got upsot.
A day or two ago
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed at me as
I there sprawling laid
But quickly drove away.
Now the ground is white,
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls along
And sing this sleighing song.
Just bet a bob-tailed bay,
Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh
and crack! You'll take the lead.

Riddle
Reindeer pull me through the sky.
Santa rides in me with present for children.
What am I?

Rudolph, the Red-nosed Reindeer
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose,
and if you ever saw it
you would even say it glows.
All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games.
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say:
“Rudolph with your nose so bright
won’t you guide my sleigh tonight”?
Then how the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee,
“Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
you’ll go down in history”.


The story of a very special reindeer,
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Do you know who Santa Claus is?
Well Santa has reindeer to pull his sleigh.
Their names are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen,
Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolph …
Rudolph is a special reindeer.
He has a big, shiny, red nose. In the dark it glows.
The other reindeer laugh at Rudolph’s big red nose.
Rudolph can’t play reindeer games with them.
It is Christmas Eve and oh!! no… it is foggy!
“Rudolph with your big red nose, guide my
sleigh in the fog!”
“It is time to give the children their presents!”,
says Santa.
The reindeer are very happy and love Rudolph
very much. “Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer is
a very clever reindeer”.

White Christmas
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
just like the ones I used to know
where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
to hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
with every Christmas card I write
may your days be merry and bright
and may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
with every Christmas card I write
may your days be merry and bright
and may all your Christmases be white

o this is Christmas
and what have you done
another year over
a new one just begun
and so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
the near and the dear ones
the old and the young
a very merry Christmas
and a happy new year
let's hope it's a good one
without any fear
and so this is Christmas (war is over...)
for weak and for strong (...if you want it)
the rich and the poor ones
the road is so long
and so happy Christmas
for black and for white
for the yellow and red ones
let's stop all the fight
A very merry Christmas
and a happy new year
lets hope it's a good one
without any fear
So this is Christmas
and what have you done
war is over - if you want it
war is over - if you want it
