Great songs.. some with lyrics, some with lyrics and chords, some with just chords. Some are just placeholders. A work in progress.
The chords are mostly my own guesses but for some songs, when stumped, I stole the chords figured out by someone with a better ear. The lyrics were all stolen from one of the numerous lyrics websites.
The bands/artists indicated are often not the author of the music/lyrics..just the one who performed the version that I first heard which introduced me to the song.

Along comes mary
Intro - Am-D ... Am-D6-Am7-D6 Am D6 Every time I think that I'm the only one who's lonely someone calls on me Am D6 And every now and then I spend my time in rhyme and verse and curse Am7 D6 those faults in me E And then along comes Mary - And does she want to give me kicks and be my ADG steady chick and give me pick of memories BEAEB Or maybe rather gather tales of all the fails and tribulations E A Dm Em Fmaj7 No one ever sees --- When we met I was sure out to lunch D ... Am-D6-Am7-D6 Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch Am D6 When vague desire is the fire in the eyes of chicks whose sickness is the Am7D6 Am D6 games they play -- And when the masquerade is played and neighbor folks Am7 D6 make jokes as who is most to blame today E And then along comes Mary - And does she want to set them free and let ADG them see reality from where she got her name BEAEB And will they struggle much when told that such a tender touch as hers EA Will make them not the same Dm Em Fmaj7 When we met I was sure out to lunch D ... Am-D6-Am7-D6 Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch Am-D Am7 D6 Am D6 And when the morning of the warning's passed, the gassed and flaccid kids Am7 D6 are flung across the stars. Am D6 The psychodramas and the traumas gone the songs are left unsung and Am7 D6 hung upon the scars E And then along comes Mary And does she want to see the stains the dead remains of all the pains she ADG left the night before BEAEA Or will their waking eyes reflect the lies and make them realize their urgent BA cry -- for sight no more Dm Em Fmaj7 When we met I was sure out to lunch D Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch AmD6 Am D6 ..........Sweet as the punch (x4)

Lee!" Now I don't mind choppin' wood, and I don't care if my money's no good Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest But they should never have taken the very best The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the bells were ringing The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin' They went Like my father before me, I will work the land And like my brother up above me, who took a rebel stand He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave I swear by the mud below my feet, you can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, when all the bells were ringing The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and you could hear 'm all singin' They went

THE BEAU BRUMMELS "Just A Little" Ah ah ah ah I can't stay, yes I know You know I hate to go But goodbye, love was sweet Our worlds can never meet [Chorus:] So I'll cry just a little 'cause I love you so And I'll die just a little 'cause I have to go Away Can't you see how I feel When I say love's unreal But goodbye, it's been sweet Even though incomplete [Chorus] [Instrumental break] Every night I still hear All your sighs very clear Now love's gone, gone away As I once heard you say [Chorus 2:] Now I've cried just a little 'cause I loved you so And I've died just a little 'cause I had to go Away [Instrumental break] [Coda]
Laugh Laugh
I hate to say it but I told you so, don't mind my preaching to you I said "don't trust 'em, baby" now you know You don't know every thing there is to know in school. Wouldn't believe me when I gave advice, I said that he was a tease If you want help you better ask me now So be sincere, convince me with a "pretty please" Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die It seemed so funny to me Laugh, laugh you met a guy who taught you how it feels to be Lonely, oh so lonely Don't think I'm being funny when I say you got just what you deserve I can't help feeling you found out today You thought you were too good you got a lot of nerve Won't say I'm sorry for the things I said. I'm glad he packed up to go You kept on bragging he was yours instead Found you don't know every thing there is to know Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die It seemed so funny to me Laugh, laugh you met a guy who taught you how it feels to be Lonely, oh so lonely Before I go I got to say one thing, don't close your ears to me Take my advice and you find out that he Is just another guy who'll cause you misery Don't say you can't get any boy to call, do be so smug or else You'll find you can't get any boy a tall You'll wind up an old lady sitting on the shelf. Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die It seemed so funny to me Laugh, laugh you met a guy who taught you how it feels to be Lonely, oh so lonely Lonely, oh so lonely

You Never Can Tell
C It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well C G(7) You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle G And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell G C "C'est la vie," say the old folks, "it goes to show you never can tell" They furnished off an apartment with a 2-room Roebuck sale The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale, But when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well "C'est la vie," say the old folks, "it goes to show you never can tell" They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast 700 little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell "C'est la vie," say the old folks, "it goes to show you never can tell" They bought a souped-up jitney, was a cherry red '53 And drove it down to Orleans to celebrate their anniversary It was there where Pierre was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle "C'est la vie," say the old folks, "it goes to show you never can tell" They had a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell "C'est la vie," say the old folks, "it goes to show you never can tell"

Listen here, girl, can't you see I love you? Make a little effort, try to be true I'll be happy, not so blue Liar, liar, pants on fire Your nose is longer than a telephone wire If you keep on tellin' me those lies Still goin' out with other guys There'll come a day I'll be gone Take my advice, won't be long When that day comes, won't be mad Be free of you, but I'll still be sad In spite of your cheatin', still love you so I'll be unhappy if I let you go Liar, liar, pants on fire Your nose is longer than a telephone wire

We gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way So remember when we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruising, entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job And I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs So remember when we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So remember when we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away?

Traces
Faded photograph, covered now with lines and creases Tickets torn in half, memories in bits and pieces Traces of love, long ago that didn't work out right Traces of love. Things we used to share, souvenirs of days together The ring he used to wear, pages from an old love letter Traces of love, long ago that didn't work out right Traces of love, with me tonight. I close my eyes and say a prayer That in his heart, he'll find a trace of love still there, Somewhere Traces of hope in the night that he'll come back and dry These traces of tears from my eyes. Traces of hope in the night that he'll come back and dry These traces of tears from my eyes.

Can't get it out of my head
"Can't Get It Out Of My Head" Midnight on the water. I saw the ocean's daughter Walking on a wave chicane, Staring as she called my name. And I can't get it out of my head. No, I can't get it out of my head. Now my old world is gone for dead 'Cause I can't get it out of my head. Breakdown on the shoreline. Can't move. It's an ebb tide. Morning don't get here tonight Searching for her silver light. And I can't get it out of my head. No, I can't get it out of my head. Now my old world is gone for dead 'Cause I can't get it out of my head. No, no. Bank job in the city. Robin Hood, William Tell, Ivanhoe and Lancelot. They don't envy me. Sitting 'til the sun goes down. In dreams the world keeps going round and round. And I can't get it out of my head. No, I can't get it out of my head. Now my old world is gone for dead 'Cause I can't get it out of my head. No, no. No, I can't get it out of my head. No, I can't get it out of my head. Now my old world is gone for dead 'Cause I can't get it out of my head. No, no, no, no.

Bernadette People are searching for The kind of love that we possess Some go on Searching their whole life through And never find the love I found in you And when I speak of you I see envy in other men's eyes And I'm well aware of what's on their minds They pretend to be my friend, when all the time (sweet Bernadette) They long to persuade you from my side (sweet Bernadette) They'd give the world and all they own For just one moment we have known Bernadette They want you because Of the pride that it gives But Bernadette I want you because I need you to live But while I live only to hold you Some other men, they long to control you But how can they control you, Bernadette (sweet Bernadette) When they can not control themselves, Bernadette (sweet Bernadette) From wanting you, needing you But darling, you belong to me I'll tell the world, you belong to me I tell the world, you're the soul of me I tell the world, you're a part of me Bernadette In your arms I find the kind of peace of mind The world is searching for But you, you give me the joy this heart of mine Has always been longing for In you I have what other men long for All men need someone to worship and adore That's why I treasure you and place you high above For the only joy in life is to be loved So whatever you do, Bernadette Keep on loving me Bernadette, keep on needing me Bernadette Bernadette You're the soul of me More than a dream, you're a plan to me And Bernadette, you mean more to me Than a woman was ever meant to be Bernadette My darling, Bernadette

Chorus Help I'm steppin' into the Twilight Zone The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned My beacon's been moved under moon and star Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far Help I'm steppin' into the Twilight Zone The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned My beacon's been moved under moon and star Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far Bm A Soon you will come to know, When the bullet hits the bone Bm A Soon you will come to know, When the bullet hits the bone Chorus Help I'm steppin' into the Twilight Zone The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned My beacon's been moved under moon and star Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far Help I'm steppin' into the Twilight Zone The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned My beacon's been moved under moon and star Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far Bm A Soon you will come to know, When the bullet hits the bone Bm A Soon you will come to know, When the bullet hits the bone When the bullet hits the bone!!

Maybe I know
Maybe I know that he's been a cheatin' Maybe I know that he's been untrue But, what can I do? I hear them whispering when I walk by He's gonna break her heart and make her cry I know it's me they're talkin' about I bet they all think I'll never find out Ooh, but maybe I know that he's been a cheatin' Maybe I know that he's been untrue But, what can I do? My friends are telling me that he's no good He isn't treating me the way he should He really loves me that's all I can say Before my tears fall I just walk away Ooh, but maybe I know that he's been a cheatin' Maybe I know that he's been untrue But, what can I do? Whoa, oooooo, ooo Deep down inside he loves me Though he may run around Deep down inside he loves me Some day he'll settle down Ooh, maybe I know that he's been a cheatin' Maybe I know that he's been untrue But, what can I do? (Instrumental break - sax solo) He really loves me, that's all I can say Before my tears fall, I just walk away Ooh, maybe I know that he's been a cheatin' Maybe I know that he's been untrue But, what can I do?

City of New Orleans
G D G Riding on the City of New Orleans Em C G Illinois Central Monday morning rail G D G Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders Em D G Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail Em All along the southbound odyssey Bm The train pulls out at Kankakee D A Rolls along past houses, farms and fields Em Passin' trains that have no names Bm Freight yards full of old black men D G And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles C D G Good morning America how are you? Em C G Don't you know me I'm your native son D G D Em Em/D Em/db I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans F C/E D G I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor And the sons of Pullman porters And the sons of engineers Ride their father's magic carpets made of steam Mothers with their babes asleep Are rockin' to the gentle beat And the rhythm of the rails is all they dream Good morning America how are you? Don't you know me I'm your native son I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done Nighttime on The City of New Orleans Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee Half way home, we'll be there by morning Through the Mississippi darkness Rolling down to the sea And all the towns and people seem To fade into a bad dream And the steel rails still ain't heard the news The conductor sings his song again The passengers will please refrain This train's got the disappearing railroad blues Good night, America, how are you? Don't you know me I'm your native son I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

In key of F. Capo on 5th fret
Operator, can you help me Help me if you please Give me the right area code And the number that I need My rider left upon the midnight flyer Singing like a summer breeze I think she's somewhere down south Down about Baton Rouge But I just can't remember no number A number I can use Directory don't have it, Central done forgot it Got to find a number to use Trying to check out her number Trying to run down her line Operator said that's privileged information And it ain't no business of mine It's flooding down in Texas, the poles are down in Utah Got to find a private line She could be hanging round a steel mill Working in a house of blue light Riding a getaway bus out of Portland Talking to the night I don't know where she's going, I don't care where she's been As long as she's been doing it right

Today
Today, I feel like pleasing you More than before Today, I know what I want to do But I don't know what for To be living for you Is all I want to do To be loving you It'll all be there When my dreams come true Today, you'll make me say That I somehow have changed Today, you'll look into my eyes I'm just not the same To be any more than all I am Would be a lie I'm so full of love I could burst apart And start to cry Today, everything you want I swear it all will come true Today, I realize how much I'm in love with you With you standing here I could tell the world What it means to love To go on from here I can't use words They don't say enough Please, please listen to me It's taken so long to come true It's all for you, all for you
Coming Back To Me
The summer had inhaled and held its breath too long The winter looked the same as if it never had gone And through an open window where no curtain hung I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me One begins to read between the pages of a look The shape of sleepy music and suddenly you're hooked Through the rain upon the trees that kisses on the run I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me You came to stay and live my way Scatter my love like leaves in the wind You always say you won't go away But I know what it always has been It always has been A transparent dream beneath an occasional sigh Most of the time I just let it go by Now I wish it hadn't begun I saw you Yes I saw you Comin' back to me Strolling the hills overlooking the shore I realize I've been here before The shadow in the mist could have been anyone I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me Small things like reasons are put in a jar Whatever happened to wishes, wished on a star? Was it just something that I made up for fun? I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me

G The old cat on the roof C He could stand a little push Am D G 'Cause he's got nine good lives to live But like my Mama said You only live till your dead And you got to give and give and give There's a pebble in a pond Going on and on Making waves and tides and ripples and rain There's a leaf in the wind That don't no where to end Chasing days and waves and wishes and dreams D G Seems like everyone is out, looking for the sun C G D Singing rain and pain on he who hesitates D7 But it'll shine when it shines G You might think I'm wasting time C D G But I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait Wipperwil's in the Dawn Pretty soon he'll be gone But he's got one good song to sing But like my Daddy said It's in your heart not your head And you've got to sing and sing and sing There's a window in the wall Looking out on it all Leavin' fears and tears and troubles along There's a fire in the stove Keeping out the cold Warming wine and winters and babies and homes Seems like everyone is out looking for the sun Singing rain and pain on he who hesitates But it'll shine when it shines You might think I'm wasting time But I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait Yes I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait
If you want to get to heaven
C GG F Bb C I never read it in a book, I never saw it on a show But I heard it in the alley on a weird radio If you want a drink of water, you got to get it from a well If you wanna get to heaven, you got to raise a little hell I never felt it in my feet, I've never felt it in my soul But I heard it in the alley, now it's in my rock and roll If you wanna know a secret, you got to promise not to tell If you wanna get to heaven, you got to raise a little hell I never thought it'd be so easy, I never thought it'd be so fun But I heard it in the alley, now I got it on the run If you wanna see an angel, you got to find it where it fell If you wanna get the heaven, you got to raise a little hell If you wanna get to heaven If you wanna get to heaven If you wanna get to heaven If you wanna get to heaven

American Girl
D E Well, she was an American girl Raised on promises She couldn't help thinkin' That there was a little more to life somewhere else After all it was a great big world With lots of places to run to And if she had to die tryin' She had one little promise she was gonna keep O yeah, all right Take it easy, baby Make it last all night She was an American girl Well, it was kind of cold that night She stood alone on her balcony Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by Out on 441 like waves crashin' on the beach And for one desperate moment There he crept back in her memory God it's so painful when something that's so close Is still so far out of reach O yeah, all right Take it easy, baby Make it last all night She was an American girl

What becomes of the broken hearted
F F F F A7 Bb Bb Dm As I walk this land with broken dreams Gm Eb I have visions of many things. Bb Dm Gm D/A Bb7 Love's happiness is just an illusion filled with sadness and confusion. C Em Am F What becomes of the brokenhearted who had love that's now departed? C Am7 E7 I know I've got to find some kind of peace of mind. Baby Bb Dm The fruits of love grow all around Gm Eb but for me they come a tumblin' down. Bb Bbdim Ev'ry day heartaches grow a little stronger; Eb7 Dm A/E I can't stand this pain much longer. Bb Dm I walk in shadows, searching for light, Gm Eb cold and alone, no comfort in sight. Hoping and prayin' for Someone to care, always movin' and goin' nowhere. C Em Am What becomes of the brokenhearted who had love that's now departed? I know I've got to find some kind of peace of mind. Maybe, I'm searching though I don't succeed, but someone look, there's a growing need. Oh, he is lost, there's no place for beginning; all that's left is an unhappy ending. What becomes of the brokenhearted who had love that's now departed? I know I've got to find some kind of peace of mind. I'll be searching ev'rywhere just find someone to care. I'll be looking ev'ry day; I know I'm gonna find a way. Nothing's gonna stop me now; I'll find a way some how. I'll be searching ev'rywhere just find someone to care. I'll be looking ev'ry day; I know I'm gonna find a way. Nothing's gonna stop me now; I'll find a way some how.

You're everything a big bad wolf could want. Listen to me. Little Red Riding Hood I don't think little big girls should Go walking in these spooky old woods alone. Owoooooooo! What big eyes you have, The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad. So just to see that you don't get chased I think I ought to walk with you for a ways. What full lips you have. They're sure to lure someone bad. So until you get to grandma's place I think you ought to walk with me and be safe. I'm gonna keep my sheep suit on Until I'm sure that you've been shown That I can be trusted walking with you alone. Owoooooooo! Little Red Riding Hood I'd like to hold you if I could But you might think I'm a big bad wolf so I won't. Owoooooooo! What a big heart I have-the better to love you with. Little Red Riding Hood Even bad wolves can be good. I'll try to be satisfied just to walk close by your side. Maybe you'll see things my way before we get to grandma's place. Little Red Riding Hood You sure are looking good You're everything that a big bad wolf could want. Owoooooooo! I mean baaaaaa! Baaa?

I got You
I got you - and that's all I want I won't forget - that's a whole lot I don't go out - not now that you're in Sometimes we shout - but that's no problem I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin' Look at you - you're a pageant You're everything - that I've imagined Something's wrong - I feel uneasy Reassure me - tell me you're not teasing I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin' I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lyin' There's no doubt - not when I'm with you When I'm without - I stay in my room Where do you go - I get no answer You're always out - it gets on my nerves I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lying But I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lyin' I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lying

Raindrops are faalling on my head
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head Just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed Nothing seems to fit Oh, raindrops keep fallin' on my head Keep a-fallin' Cause I just done me some talking to the sun And I said I didn't like the way he got things done Sleeping on the job Oh, raindrops keep fallin' on my head Keep a-fallin' But there's one thing I know The blues they send to meet me Won't defeat me It won't be long till happiness Comes up to greet me To greet greet greet greet me Raindrops keep fallin' on my head But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red Crying's not for me Cause I ain't gonna stop the rain by complaining Raindrops keep fallin' on my head But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red Crying's not for me Cause I ain't gonna stop the rain by complaining Because I'm free Nothing's bothering me Because I'm free Nothing's bothering me Because I'm free Nothing's bothering me Because I'm free Nothing's bothering me

It is based around this 2-bar main groove, part "A", and it always returns to this starting point. "B" is also more or less just "A" modulated up two semi-tones. It's hard to tell whether all the Eb7-chords are minor or major. Most of the time they're neither, hence the (no3), but the 3rd is often thrown in as a little spice, both minor and major.

Oh Holy Night
C F C O holy night! The stars are brightly shining, C G G7 It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth. C F C Long lay the world in sin and error pining, Em B Em 'Til He appear'd and the soul felt its worth. G C A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, C C For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Am Em Dm Am Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices! C G C F C O night divine, O night when Christ was born; C O night divine, O night, O night Divine. Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand. So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming, Here come the wise men from Orient land. The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger; In all our trials born to be our friend. He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger, Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend! Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend! Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is love and His gospel is peace. Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother; And in His name all oppression shall cease. Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we, Let all within us praise His holy name. Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever, His power and glory evermore proclaim. His power and glory evermore proclaim.

G C Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh Am D D7 G Over the fields we go, laughing all the way G C Bells on bob-tail ring, making spirits bright Am G D D7 G What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight G D G Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way C G A7 D D7 O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh G D G Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way C G D D7 G O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh G C A day or two ago, I thought I'd take a ride Am D D7 G And soon miss fanny bright, was seated by my side G C The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seemed his lot Am G D D7 G He got into a drifted bank and we got up set Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh 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 as there I sprawling lie but quickly drove away Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh Now the ground is white, go it while you're young Take the girls tonight, and sing this sleighing song Just get a bob-tailed bay, two-forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack, you'll take the lead Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh
Do You Hear What I Hear
Said the night wind to the little lamb, Do you see what I see Way up in the sky, little lamb, Do you see what I see A star, a star, dancing in the night With a tail as big as a kite With a tail as big as a kite Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy, Do you hear what I hear Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy, Do you hear what I hear A song, a song, high above the trees With a voice as big as the sea With a voice as big as the sea Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king, Do you know what I know In your palace warm, mighty king, Do you know what I know A Child, a Child shivers in the cold Let us bring Him silver and gold Let us bring Him silver and gold Said the king to the people everywhere, Listen to what I say Pray for peace, people everywhere! Listen to what I say The Child, the Child, sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light He will bring us goodness and light

Mary Did You Know
Mary, did you know that your Baby Boy would one day walk on water? Mary, did you know that your Baby Boy would save our sons and daughters? Did you know that your Baby Boy has come to make you new? This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you. Mary, did you know that your Baby Boy will give sight to a blind man? Mary, did you know that your Baby Boy will calm the storm with His hand? Did you know that your Baby Boy has walked where angels trod? When you kiss your little Baby you kissed the face of God? Mary did you know. Ooo Ooo Ooo The blind will see. The deaf will hear. The dead will live again. The lame will leap. The dumb will speak The praises of The Lamb. Mary, did you know that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation? Mary, did you know that your Baby Boy would one day rule the nations? Did you know that your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb? The sleeping Child you're holding is the Great, I Am.

Sleigh Ride (Just hear those sleigh bells jinglin'…)
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
