All around the Marketplace caroliers were singing. Tis the Season. . .
Winter Wonderland
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening In the lane, snow is glistening A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walkin' in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song as we go along Walkin' in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say, "Are you married?" We'll say, "No man, But you can do the job when you're in town."
Later on we'll conspire As we dream by the fire To face unafraid The plans that we made Walkin' in a winter wonderland!

Sleigh Ride
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you, Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoo 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 show, 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 a 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 that 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 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 chocolate 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 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 that road before us and sing a chorus or two Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you!

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 ev'ry where 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 Ding dong ding dong ding dong Ding dong ding dong

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 thru the sky, shepherd boy Do you hear what I hear"
A song, a song High above the tree 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 ev'rywhere Listen to what I say! Pray for peace, people ev'rywhere 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!

Up On The Housetop
Up on the housetop, reindeer pause Out jumps good ol' Santa Claus Down through the chimney with lots of toys All for the little ones, Christmas joys Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go" Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go" Up on the housetop, click, click, click Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick
First comes the stocking of little Nell Oh, dear Santa, fill it well Give her a dolly that laughs and cries One that will open and shut her eyes Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go" Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go" Up on the housetop, click, click, click Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick
Next comes the stocking of little Will Oh, just see what a glorious fill Here is a hammer and lots of tacks Also a ball and a whip that cracks Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go" Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go" Up on the housetop, click, click, click Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick!

I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night She didn't see me creep Down the stairs to have a peep She thought that I was tucked up in my bedroom fast asleep Then I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy white Oh, what a laugh it would have been If Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night!

The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Jack Frost nipping at your nose Yuletide 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 For kids from one to ninety two Although its been said many times many ways Merry Christmas to you!
