Christmas Greetings -- Merry e-Tidings

I'll be home for
Christmas

You can count on me

Please have snow and mistletoe

and presents on the tree



Christmas Eve will find me

Where the love light gleams

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,

Right down Santa Claus Lane.





Vixen, Blitzen, all his reindeer . . .



Pulling on the reins.



Bells are ringing, children singing,

All is merry and bright.

Hang your stockings and say a prayer,



'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.



Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,

Riding down Santa Claus Lane.



He's got a bag that's filled with toys



For boys and girls again.

Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle,

What a beautiful sight.

Jump in bed and cover up your head,

Because Santa Claus comes tonight.



Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,

Riding down Santa Claus Lane.



He doesn't care if you're a rich or poor boy,

He loves you just the same.



Santa knows that we're God's children,

That makes everything right.

Fill your hearts with Christmas cheer,

'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.





Well, here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,

Riding down Santa Claus Lane.



He'll come around when the chimes ring out

It's Christmas morn again.

Peace on Earth will come to all

If we just follow the light





Let's give thanks to the Lord above,

'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.



'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.


[Words and music by Gene Autry and Oakley
Haldeman]

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing

Ring ting tingle-ing too

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you


Outside the snow is falling

And friends are calling "You Hoo"

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you


Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap

let's go

Let's look at the snow

We're riding in a wonderland of snow




Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand

Just holding your hand

We're gliding along with the song

Of a wintry fairy land


Our cheeks are nice and rosy

And comfy cozy are we

We're snuggled up together like two

Birds of a feather would be


Let's take the road before us

And sing a chorus or two

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you


There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray

It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day

We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop

At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop

Pop! Pop! Pop!


There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy

When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie

It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives

These wonderful things are the things

We remember all through our lives

Grandma got run over by a
reindeer,



Coming 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 drinking too much eggnog,

And we begged her not to go

But she forgot her medication,

So she staggered out the door into the snow



When we found her Christmas morning,

At the scene of the attack



There were hoove marks on her forehead,



And incriminating claw marks on her back



Grandma got run over by a
reindeer,

Coming 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 the blue and silver candles,

That would just have matched the hair in grandmas wig

It's not Christmas without Grandma,

All the relatives dressed in black

And we cannot help but wonder,





Should we open up the gifts or send them back



Grandma got run over by a
reindeer,

Coming home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there's no such thing as Santa,



But as for me and Grandpa we
believe !
