HOLIDAY SONGS

CAROL OF THE BELLS

Hark how the bells, Sweet silver bells, 
All seem to say, Throw cares away 
Christmas is here, Bringing good cheer, 
To young and old, Meek and the bold, 
Ding dong ding dong, that is their song 
With joyful ring, All caroling 
One seems to hear, words of good cheer 
From everywhere, filling the air

Oh how they pound, Raising the sound, 
O'er hill and dale, Telling their tale,

Gaily they ring While people sing 
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here,  
Merry, merry, merry, Merry Christmas, 
Merry, merry, merry, Merry Christmas, 

On on they send, On without end, 
Their joyful tone To every home  (Return to beginning)

DOMINICK THE DONKEY

Hey! Chingedy ching, (hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the donkey.
Chingedy ching, (hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas donkey.
La la la-la la-la la la la la………….la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da

Santa's got a little friend, his name is Dominick.
The cutest little donkey, You never see him kick.
When Santa visits his paisons, With Dominick he'll be.
Because the reindeer cannot Climb the hills of Italy. CHORUS

Jingle bells around his feet, And presents on the sled.
Hey! Look at the mayor's derby, On top of Dominick's head.
A pair of shoes for Louie, And a dress for Josephine.
The labels on the inside says, They're made in Brooklyn. CHORUS

Children sing, and clap their hands, And Dominick starts to dance.
They talk Italian to him, And he even understands.
Cumpare sing, Cumpare su, And dance the tarantel.
When Jusamagora comes to town, And brings du ciuccianello. CHORUS

THE DREIDEL SONG

I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play

CHORUS
Oh dreidel dreidel dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play

It has a lovely body
With legs so short and thin
And when it is so tired
It drops and then I win!

CHORUS

My dreidel's always playful
It loves to dance and spin
A happy game of dreidel
Come play now, let's begin!

JINGLE BELLS

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh – Hey! Hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Dashing through the snow
On a one-horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tails ring,
Making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight – oh!

CHORUS

A day or two ago,
I thought I'd take a ride,
And soon 2 pretty girls
Were sitting by my side;
Now the ground is white
Go at it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song – oh!

THE RAG DANCE SONG

Good evening, master and good mistress 
And all the good folk who live here. 
(Repeat)
We've come to ask for mistletoe  
On this last day of the old year. 
(Repeat)
If you want to say you like us,  
Just say so, please feed and dine us, 
We only want a pig's ear, then we'll go, 
And I wish you a Happy New Year.

Good evening, master and good mistress 
And all the good folk who live here.

Just say so, go grab your rag bag, 
We only want a rag dance, then we'll go, 
And I wish you a Happy New Year.
