Recommended Posts

Hi, dunno if there's already a thread about this but i luuv Xmas Carols and thought it would be funny to know other countries Carols and share them...

 

My fav:

 

Jingle Bell Rock

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun

Now the jingle hop has begun.

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air.

 

What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet

That's the jingle bell,

That's the jingle bell,

That's the jingle bell rock.

All I Want For Christmas

Is My Two Front Teeth

 

 

 

James Pierpont. publ.1857

 

 

Every body stops

and stares at me

These two teeth are

gone as you can see

I don't know just who

to blame for this catastrophe!

But my one wish on Christmas Eve

is as plain as it 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 with 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 (thhhh)

 

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!"

And one more...

 

Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree

 

Brenda Lee

 

Rocking around the Christmas tree

at the Christmas party hop

Mistletoe hung where you can see

every couple tries to stop

Rocking around the Christmas tree,

let the Christmas spirit ring

Later we'll have some pumpkin pie

and we'll do some caroling.

 

You will get a sentimental

feeling when you hear

Voices singing let's be jolly,

deck the halls with boughs of holly

Rocking around the Christmas tree,

have a happy holiday

Everyone dancing merrily

in the new old-fashioned way.

You better watch out

You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

 

He's making a list,

And checking it twice;

Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice.

Santa Claus is coming to town

 

He sees you when you're sleeping

He knows when you're awake

He knows if you've been bad or good

So be good for goodness sake!

 

O! You better watch out!

You better not cry.

Better not pout, I'm telling you why.

Santa Claus is coming to town.

Santa Claus is coming to town.

Aussie Jingle Bells

 

http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=WAS63tWVu94

 

Dashing through the bush

In a rusty Holden Ute

Kicking up the dust

Esky in the boot

Kelpie by my side

Singing Christmas songs

It's summer time and I am in

My singlet, shorts & thongs

 

CHORUS:

OH, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS

JINGLE ALL THE WAY

CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA

ON A SCORCHING SUMMER'S DAY

JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS

CHRISTMAS TIME IS BEAUT

OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE

IN A RUSTY HOLDEN UTE

Engine's getting hot

Dodge the kangaroos

Swaggy climbs aboard

He is welcome too

All the family is there

Sitting by the pool

Christmas day, the Aussie way

By the barbecue!

CHORUS

Come the afternoon

Grandpa has a doze

The kids and uncle Bruce

Are swimming in their clothes

The time comes round to go

We take a family snap

Then pack the car and all shoot through

Before the washing up

CHORUS

Good King Wenceslas looked out

On the feast of Stephen

Where the snow lay round about

Deep and Crisp and even

Brightly shone the moon that night

Though the frost was cruel

When a poor man came in sight

Gathering winter fuel

 

"Hither page and stand by me

If thou knowest it's telling

Yonder peasant, who is he

Where and what his dwelling?"

 

"Sire, he lives a good league hence

Underneath the mountain

Right against the forrest fence

By saint Agnes' fountain

 

"Bring me flesh and bring me wine,

Bring me pine logs thither

Thou and I will see him dine

In the bitter weather"

 

Page and monarch, forth they went

Forth they went together

Throughthe rude wind's wild lament

And the bitter weather

 

"Sire, the night is darker now

And the wind blows stronger

Fails my heart I know not how

I can go no longer"

 

"Mark my footsteps

Good my page

Tread thou in them boldly

Thou shalt find the winter's rage

freeze thy blood less coldly"

 

In his master's steps he trod

Where the snow lay dinted

heat was in the very sod

Which the saint had printed

Therefor Christian men be sure

Wealth or rank posessing

Those of you who bless the poor

Will yourselves find blessing

 

:blush-anim-cl:

 

And I didn't even look it up :blush-anim-cl:

 

And it is the only religious carol I know that doesn't mention God, Mary or Jesus :thumb_yello:
