Forget the tinsel and the pretty tree
We’ll rock around the clock
Just keep those Christmas lights a’flashing ..
Forget the spinning tops - toys and trinkets
Tommy guns and dolls ..
He’s wired for sound .. he’s a rockroll Santa Claus
He loves to boogie in his way cool tricked out ride
Ah he can rhumba, yeah .. but that’s not his gig tonight
Ooh .. a whole new generation wanna make some noise
He brought a lot of amps and electric guitars
For all of the girls and boys
Forget the tinsel and the pretty tree
We’ll rock around the clock
Just keep those Christmas lights a’flashing ..
Forget the spinning tops - toys and trinkets
Tommy guns and dolls ..
He’s wired for sound .. he’s a rockroll Santa Claus
He’ll splash your party in his hip red leather suit
He’d love to stick around but he’s got things to do
A couple hundred sets of drums are loaded in his sleigh
A whole new generation
Wants to learn to play
Forget the tinsel and the pretty tree
We’ll rock around the clock
Just keep those Christmas lights a’flashing ..
Forget the spinning tops - toys and trinkets
Tommy guns and dolls ..
He’s wired for sound .. he’s a rockroll Santa Claus
Ooh .. A whole new generation wanna make some noise
Pianos, horns, wah-wah pedals
For all the girls and boys
Forget the tinsel and the pretty tree
We’ll rock around the clock
Just keep those Christmas lights a’flashing ..
Forget the spinning tops - toys and trinkets
Tommy guns and dolls ..
He’s wired for sound .. he’s a rockroll Santa Claus
He’s wired for sound .. he’s a rockroll Santa Claus
He’s wired for sound .. he’s a rockroll Santa Claus

Christmas Lights

Snow stuck around my little town
Setting the scene for Christmas
Tinsel galore, wreath on the door
The most wonderful time of the year
Middle school choir invaded the mall
Singing - Oh - Holy - Night
The stores are all closing
I'm busy shopping
Looking for Christmas lights
Shopped for a toy - small orphan boy
Anonymous Santa this Christmas
Metal toy train dipped in red paint
A friend to last all through the years
Little town choir with angels on high
Singing - Oh - Holy - Night
I'm walking home
Treasures in tow
And ... I found some Christmas lights
Here's to the wise men who followed the star
Seek and you will find
More than a baby born in a stable
The first Christmas light
So - snow's coming down in my pretty town
Just a few sleeps 'til Christmas
One little tree is perfect for me
I've kept it for all of these years
Church choir aided by angels on high
Singing - Oh - Holy - Night
When I get home
I'll write a song
One about Christmas lights
So - here's to the wise men who followed the star
Seek and you will find
More than a baby born in a stable
The first Christmas light
Snow stuck around in my pretty town
Just one more sleep ' til Christmas

Sending My Heart

Da da da da da ta ta ta tum
Snow’s on the ground and old man winter’s ..
Just - spreading his blanket over my head
You’re out there .. oh so sad and blue
Shall I - send my heart out to you ..
It’s nice to know you’re still writing
I used to be - head over heels in love with you
You’re falling apart .. what’s a girl to do
Shall I - send my heart out to you ..
Any old way you want it
I’ll send it by bus or mail
Any old way you want it
I’ll send it by plane or rail
It don’t matter which way - it’ll get through
If I - send my heart out to you
Da da da da da ta ta ta tum
Courting a storm without a shelter
I was - closest to cold I ever knew
You put your heart in a jar .. the jar it broke in two
Shall I - send my heart out to you
Any old way you want it
I’ll send it by bus or mail
Any old way you want it
I’ll send it by plane or rail
It don’t matter which way - it’ll get through
If I send my heart out to you
Da da da da da ta ta ta tum
Sending my heart out to you ..
Sending my heart out to you ..
Sending my heart out to you ..
Yes, I’m - sending my heart out to you

Santa's On His Way
02:38

If you're blue and all alone
Just pick up your telephone
And Santa - Santa's on his way
If your tree won't stand up straight
Don't you worry - just you wait
Hey, Santa - Santa's on his way
Well, he - ain't got no reindeer
Or no big black shiny car
And his long dark hair is starting to turn grey
It's a cold old winter's night
You need someone to treat you right
Well, Santa - Santa's on his way ..
Hanging up your mistletoe
Yuletide logs are all a'glow
And Santa - Santa's on his way
Close the window, trim the lights
You won't be alone tonight
'Cause Santa - Santa's on his way
Well, he - ain't got no reindeer
Or no big black shiny car
And his long dark hair is starting to turn grey
It's a cold old winter's night
You need someone to treat you right
Well, Santa - Santa's on his way ..
Well, he - ain't got no reindeer
Or no big black shiny car
And his long dark hair is starting to turn grey
If there's someone you would like to see
Underneath your Christmas tree
Well, Santa - Santa's on his way ..
Hey, Santa - Santa's on his way ..
