JINGLE BELLS

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh, HEY,
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.

Dashing through the snow. In a one-horse open sleigh.
O'er the fields we go. Laughing all the way.
Bells on bobtails ring. Making spirits bright.
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight. OH....

 

JINGLE JINGLE JINGLE

Jingle Jingle Jingle
There's excitement in the air
Jingle Jingle Jingle
Christmas time is here.

Thump Thump Thump
I hear a reindeer hoof
Thump Thump Thump
Santa's on the roof!

 

JOLLY OLD ST. NICHOLAS

Jolly old St. Nicholas lean your ear this way.
Don't you tell a single soul what I'm going to say.
Christmas eve is coming soon. Now you dear old man.
Whisper what you'll bring to me. Tell me if you can.

 

LIGHT A CANDLE FOR PEACE

Light a candle for peace. Light a candle for love.
Light a candle that shines all the way around the world.
Light a candle for me. Light a Candle for you.
That our wish for world peace. Will one day come true.
Sing Peace around the world...........

 

RUDOLPH
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 all the reindeer loved him.
And they shouted out with glee (Yipee!)
Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer you'll go down in history

 

THREE LITTLE CANDLES


ONE LITTLE CANDLE BURNING BRIGHT
TWO LITTLE CANDLES FLICKERING LIGHT
THREE LITTLE CANDLES FOR ALL TO SEE
ONE FOR LOVE, ONE FOR PEACE,
ONE FOR HARMONY.

WALK ON THE LEAVES

Some leaves stay green. All year round.
While others change colours, yellow, orange, red & brown.
Leaves falling down, gently to the ground.
To make a fancy carpet, scattered colours on the ground.

Let's walk on the leaves. Mother Nature's fancy carpet,
Scattered colours on the ground.

WALTZING MATILDA


ONCE A JOLLY SWAGMAN, CAMPED BY A BILLABONG

UNDER THE SHADE OF A COOLIBAH TREE

AND HE SANG AS HE WATCHED AND WAITED TILL HIS BILLY BOILED

YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME.

Chorus: WALTZING MATILDA, WALTZING MATILDA,

YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME
(Sing the last two lines of each verse for the each chorus)
AND HE SANG AS HE WATCHED AND WAITED TILL HIS BILLY BOILED, YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME.

DOWN CAME A JUMPBUCK TO DRINK AT THE BILLABONG
UP JUMPED THE SWAGMAN AND GRABBED HIM WITH GLEE
AND HE SANG AS HE STOWED THAT JUMPBUCK IN HIS TUCKERBAG
YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME.

Chorus in Aborigine language:
NYANPEE MATILDA, NYANPEE MATILDA,
NYOON TOO MATILDA, NYANPEE, NYI OO LA
MOONOO NYA KOOLA ING KANG,

UP RODE THE SQUATTER, MOUNTED ON HIS THOROUGHBRED
DOWN CAME THE TROOPERS, ONE TWO THREE
WHERE'S THAT JOLLY JUMPBUCK , YOU'VE GOT HIM IN YOUR TUCKERBAG YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME.

chorus in Aborigine language

UP JUMPED THE SWAGMAN, RIGHT INTO THE BILLIBONG
YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE SAID HE
AND HIS GHOST MAY BE HEARD AS YOU RIDE BESIDE THE BILLIBONG
YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME.

Chorus in English: spooky last line. 'YOU'LL COME A WALTZING MATILDA WITH ME…..BOO!'
