1) VINCE GILL – 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.
2)MERLE HAGGARD - BLUE CHRISTMAS
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
Don't mean a thing dear if you're not here with me.
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when my blue, blue heartaches start hurtin'
You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white
While I'll have a blue, blue Christmas.
--- Instrumental ---
I'll have a blue, blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white
While I'll have a blue, blue Christmas...
3) JOHN LENNON - SO THIS IS CHRISTMAS
So this is Christmas.
And what have you done ?
Another year over
and 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
for weak and for strong,
for rich and the poor ones.
The road is so long.
And so happy Christmas
for black and for white,
for yellow and red ones.
Let's stop all the fight.
A very merry Christmas
and a happy new year.
Let's hope it's a good one
without any fear.
So this is Christmas.
And what have we done ?
Another year over
and a new one just begun.
And so happy Christmas.
We 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.
War is over if you want it.
4) MICKEY GILLEY - AN OLD CHRISTMAS CARD
There's an old Christmas card in an old dusty trunk
And it brings back sweet mem'ries dear to me
'Tho it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn
When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree.
Chorus:
I thrill with every word, every line
I guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time
Oh, pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer
It's the mem'ry of an old Christmas card.
--- Instrumental ---

6) JIMMY BUFFETT - JINGLE BELLS
(Chorus)
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to run in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun on Jah's cool run in a one horse open sleigh
We're dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
And o'er the fields we go
A laughing all the way
The bells on bob-tail ring
They're making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight
Chorus:
A day or two ago
I thought I'd make a run
To Port Antonio
I be cruisin' in the sun
The radio was loud
The chicken jerked and fried
And all I had to do that day was drive on the left side
Chorus:
7) ALAN JACKSON & THE CHIPMUNKS -SANTA’S GONNA COME IN A PICKUP TRUCK
Well i've been sorta worried
About santa claus this year
Cause we live way down south
And it didn't snow down here
But i'm telling you not to worry
Cause i just got the word
Everybody listen closely
And i'll tell you what i heard
Santa's comin in a pickup
Instead of his trusty sleigh
He'll have a truck instead of reindeer
To carry him on his way
Cause the weatherman had some problems
He couldn't get snow you see
Santa's gonna come in a pickup truck
When he visits you and me
Santa can't bring his reindeer
He'll leave them far away
But don't you worry 'bout him
He's gonna be here christmas day
He's got a big red pickup
With four-wheel drive and all
And there's gonna be a merry christmas
A merry christmas for all
Santa's gonna come in a pick up truck
When he visits you and me
8) JIMMY FLYNN - SANTA’S HOOKED ON COUNTRY MUSIC
Way up at the northpole.. Where it's 99 below
There's an old toy makers shop all nestled in the snow.
One day He visited an eskimo with a radio in his igloo.
And the old toy maker asked, "What's that catchy tune you're listening to?"
Why, it's country music Santa
From way down south you see
It comes here to the North Pole
From Nashville, Tennessee
Old Santa said, "I love it! And I know just what I'll get!"
So he bought a hundred albums and a great big stereo set!
Now Santas feet are tapping and they just can't seem to stop,
Since he started playin country music in his shop.
And the elves all sing and work along with hammers, nails and saws
Makin toys for the girls and boys and helpin Santa Claus.
Now Santa's hooked on country and he listens night and day.
He even had an FM stereo put in his sleigh.
And he's had music on his flight since 1983.
With Waylin, Willie, Chris and John, George Jones and old Tom T.
He'll follow Rudolphs bright red nose up where the big jets fly.
He'll yodel like Will Carter as he zooms across the sky.
And this year when he brings those presents to your Christmas tree
He'll sing with Micky, Merle and Ricky, Randy Hank and me!
9) SKEETER DAVIS - RUDOLPH THE RED NOSED REINDEER
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid and Donder and Blitzen.,
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose,
And if you ever saw it,
You could 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."
10) TRACY CHAPMAN - O HOLY NIGHT
(Mmm
O holy night the stars are brightly shining
This is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angels' voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine, O night
Divine
(Mmm
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angels' voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine, O night
Divine
(Mmm
11) DODIE STEVENS - MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS
Merry, merry Christmas baby, though you're with someone new
Thought I'd send a card to say
Wish this joyous holiday would find me close to you-ou-ou
Merry, merry Christmas baby and a Happy New Year to-o-o
'twas a Christmas Eve we met, a holiday I won't forget
For that's when we fell in love
I still remember the gift you gave so-o-o-o dear
This love I hold within my heart from year to year though we're apart.
Have a merry, merry Christmas baby and a Happy New Year to-o-o
I am hoping that you'll find a love as true as mine
To last a lifetime through.
Merry Christmas - Country Artists
