It's Christmas time
I see the lines of people everywhere Trying to pick out the gifts That show how much they care. It makes me wish that I could see My friends on Christmas day, And fill my list with lots of gifts, But I can only say Here comes a Merry Christmas Strait to you. I hope it cheers you up When you are down and feeling blue. Right or wrong, I'll sing my song And you will know just who Sends a Merry Christmas Strait to you. There's lots of ways to share the days Of Christmas with your friends A Christmas card, a tree to star, The gifts that make you grin. I'd like to share this song With everyone who came our way. Without a doubt the fire's not out, It burns for you today. So here's a Merry Christmas Strait to you. I hope it cheers you up When you are down and feeling blue. You've been so kind, You've crossed my mind And nothing less will do. Here's a Merry Christmas Strait to you. Here comes a Merry Christmas, And to all who might have missed us A very Merry Christmas Strait to you... |

When it's Christmas time in Texas
It's a very special time for me In Texas we'll be swingin' 'round the Christmas tree Dancin' to a Christmas melody When it's Christmas time in Texas It might look just like a summer day There may not be snow in San Antonio But it's a Texas Christmas to me. When Santa Claus slips over the border It'll sound a little different when he sings He'll hear those twin fiddle's playin' Christmas songs with a touch of western swing There may not be snow in San Antonio But it's a Texas Christmas to me. When it's Christmas time in Texas I love to hear those Christmas carolers sing People on the go children's faces all aglow Wondrin' what Santas going to bring Grandpa's been chasin' grandma around Tryin' to catch her 'neath the mistletoe Everything is right the lone star's shinin' bright But it's a Texas Christmas to me. When Santa Claus crosses over the border It'll sound a little different when he sings He'll hear those twin fiddle's playin' Christmas songs with a touch of western swing There may not be snow in San Antonio But it's a Texas Christmas to me And here's wishin' you all a merry Christmas Merry Christmas from Texas and me... |

This the season for generosity
A time to give and to receive My Christmas list consists of just one sweet dream. I know what I want for Christmas this year I hope my note got to Santa on time I'm a little bit nervous, It's kind of a big thing I'm asking for I don't know if I deserve it but, boy, if I get it I'll never ask for anything more It shines, it's new It's the one wish that I wish would come true This year for Christmas I just wanna be with you. We can build a little fire We can sit and talk for hours We'll just have fun You can tell me what you did Christmas morning as a kid And we'll talk about all our Christmases to come. And if I hang a little mistletoe in every single doorway I'm sure to get a kiss And is it too much to ask for a snowman kind of snow To complete this singular wish? It shines, it's new I know what I want and nothin' else will do This year for Christmas I just want to be with you. This year for Christmas I just want to be with you... |

Tricycles, bicycles
Candy canes and candlelight Tryin' to stay awake all night To catch a glimpse of Santa's reindeer Mama bakin', sister makin' Angels in the fallin' snow Now it seems so long ago I wish they all were here. We'd have an old time Christmas An old time Christmas Just like the ones from yesterday We'd leave the world behind us Let the spirit find us And have an old time Christmas For old times sake. Friends singin', bells ringin' Snowman standing in the yard It's a living Christmas card Captured in our hearts forever Friends scatter, it won't matter The magic never melts away It only takes a Christmas Day To make it reappear. We'd have an old time Christmas An old time Christmas Just like the ones from yesterday We'd leave the world behind us Let the spirit find us And have an old time Christmas For old times sake. So leave the world behind you Let the spirit find you And have an old time Christmas For old times sake. |

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful And since we've no place to go Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! It doesn't show signs of stopping And I've brought some corn for popping The lights are turned way down low Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! When we finally kiss goodnight How I'll hate going out in the storm! But if you'll really hold me tight All the way home I'll be warm The fire is slowly dying And, my dear, we're still goodbying But as long as you love me so Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! The fire is slowly dying And, my dear, we're still goodbying But as long as you love me so Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!... |

Everybody stops and stares at me
These two teeth are gone as you can see I don't know just who to blame for this castastrophe But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as can be All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth My two front teeth See my two front teeth Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth Then I could wish you, "Merry Christmas" It seems so long since I could say "Sister, Susie sitting on a thistle!" Gosh, oh gee, how happy I'd be, if I could only whistle All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth My two front teeth See my two front teeth Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth Then I could wish you, "Merry Christmas" It seems so long since I could say "Sister, Susie sitting on a thistle!" Gosh, oh gee, how happy I'd be, if I could only whistle All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth My two front teeth See my two front teeth Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth Then I could wish you, "Merry Christmas" |

I had no reason for shopping this season
But I hung your stocking today It makes me feel better Though we're not together You'll always be in my heart Merry Christmas, wherever you are Since it was Christmas I thought you might call Or have you stopped thinkin' about me at all It'd be a perfect white Christmas A storybook picture If I could just share it with you Though you're not here with me I've got your memories And they keep me goin' sweetheart Merry Christmas wherever you are Though you're not here with me I've got your memories And you'll always be in my heart Merry Christmas wherever you are Merry Christmas wherever you are |

(Spoken)
Leon Dixon leaves his Christmas lights up all year 'round It's somethin' different about our town We've often wondered why he never takes 'em down But Leon leaves his Christmas lights up all year 'round There's a big bright noel flashin' off and on In the yard where the children play the whole year long We've all gotten used to it year by year Now it's kinda gotten to be a part of things 'round here (Sang) Peace on earth, Good will to men Christmas time is here again Can it be all that wrong To feel like Christmas all year long (Spoken) Leon got sick, it's been back awhile Short on luck and money, but he still wore that smile And nobody could stand to see him do without So we all drove over to see if we could help out Yeah, the noel flashed on and the bills stayed paid I felt so warm as we drove away I had never seen Christmas spelled so clear As when I saw "LEON" flashin' in my rear view mirror (Sang) Peace on earth, Good will to men Christmas time is here again Can it be all that wrong To feel like Christmas all year long (Spoken) Noel Leon... |

You know Dasher and Dancer, and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid, and Donner 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 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.

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir And folks dressed up like Eskimos. Everybody knows A turkey and some mistletoe Help to make the season bright Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow Will find it hard to sleep tonight. They know that Santa's on his way He's loaded lots of toys And goodies on his sleigh And every mother's child is gonna spy To see if reindeer really know how to fly. And so I'm offering this simple phrase To kids from one to ninety-two Although it's been said many times, Many ways Merry Christmas to you.
