...as recorded by Clyde McPhatter & The Drifters in 1954!
Ooh-Doop doop, doop doo doop
Ooh-Doop doop, doop doo doop
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know,
Where those treetops glisten, and children listen,
To hear sleigh bells in the snow, the snow.
Then, I-I-I am dreaming of a white Christmas,
With every Christmas card I write,
May your days, may your days, may your days be merry and bright,
And may all your Christmases be white.
I-I-I am dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know,
Where the treetops glisten, and children listen,
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I-I-I am dreaming of a white Christmas,
With every Christmas card I write,
May your days, may your days, may your days be merry and bright,
And may all your Christmases be white.
Jingle bells, jingle bells all the way-- ooooh.
MAMA SAYS by the BEACH BOYS
Here's this bit of psychedelic barbershop doo-wop, as Jimi Hendrix accurately put down one day.
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy
(Good boy)
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy
Never be lazy be lazy
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy... boy
Poof!
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy
(Good boy)
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy
Never be lazy be lazy
Eat a lot sleep a lot brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot do a lot never be lazy... boy
Poof!
Oh, Christmas Tree
Same as 'O Tannenbaum' with English lyrics. Another tune than everybody enjoys more than me...
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
Your branches green delight us.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
Your branches green delight us.
They're green when summer days are bright;
They're green when winter snow is white.
O, Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
Your branches green delight us!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
You give us so much pleasure!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
You give us so much pleasure!
How oft at Christmas tide the sight,
O green fir tree, gives us delight!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
You give us so much pleasure!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
Your branches green delight us.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
Your branches green delight us.
They're green when summer days are bright;
They're green when winter snow is white.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,
Your branches green delight us!
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
Forever true your color
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
Forever true your color
Your boughs so green in summertime
Stay bravely green in wintertime
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
Forever true your color
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
You fill my heart with music
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
You fill my heart with music
Reminding me on Christmas day
To think of you and then be gay
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
You fill my heart with music
O Tannenbaum!
Dieses Lied ist ein ,,Must". Ich hasse Weihnachtslieder... aber es macht allen viel Spass!
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter.
Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit,
Nein, auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
du kannst mir sehr gefallen.
Wie oft hat nicht zur Weihnachtszeit
Ein Baum von dir mich hoch erfreut.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
du kannst mir sehr gefallen.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
dein Kleid will mich was lehren:
die Hoffnung und Beständigkeit
gibt Trost und Kraft zu aller Zeit.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
dein Kleid will mich was lehren.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
dein Kleid will mich was lehren:
die Hoffnung und Beständigkeit
gibt Trost und Kraft zu aller Zeit.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
dein Kleid will mich was lehren.
Dem Dry Bones
There are countless versions of this song. It's supposed to be gospel, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out someday that it's two or three thousand years old!
Ezekiel connected dem dry bones
Ezekiel connected dem dry bones
Ezekiel connected dem dry bones
Don't you hear the word of the Lord?
Your toe bone connected to your foot bone,
Your foot bone connected to your ankle bone,
Your ankle bone connected to your leg bone,
Your leg bone connected to your knee bone,
Your knee bone connected to your thigh bone,
Your thigh bone connected to your hip bone,
Your hip bone connected to your back bone,
Your back bone connected to your shoulder bone,
Your shoulder bone connected to your neck bone,
Your neck bone connected to your head bone,
Don't you hear the word of the Lord?
Disconnect dem bones, dem dry bones
Disconnect dem bones, dem dry bones
Disconnect dem bones, dem dry bones
Don't you hear the word of the Lord?
Your head bone connected to your neck bone,
Your neck bone connected to your shoulder bone,
Your shoulder bone connected to your back bone,
Your back bone connected to your hip bone,
Your hip bone connected to your thigh bone,
Your thigh bone connected to your knee bone,
Your knee bone connected to your leg bone,
Your leg bone connected to your ankle bone,
Your ankle bone connected to your foot bone,
Your foot bone connected to your toe bone.
Don't you hear the word of the Lord?
By the bye: I first heard this song in the last episode of the classic 6Os series 'The Prisoner'.
