‘Tis the Season
Written by: Rehya Stevens & Jon Kubis
Deck! The Halls with boughs of holly
Fa la la la it’s Christmas time
Tis the season, oh by golly too
Fa la la la la it’s Christmas time
Join the Yuletide celebration
Fa la la la it’s Christmas time
Little ones await impatiently
Fa la la la it’s Christmas time
Bridge:
Johnny wants a scooter and choo choo train
Jenny wants a little puppy that she can name
Mom and dad wish the kids were back in school again
But until then
Sweep the chimney, Santa's coming
Fa la la la it’s Christmas time
Be of good cheer - cuz he’ll be watching you
Fa la la la it’s Christmas time
TAG
‘Tis the season for that jolly ole time of the year
‘Tis the season - it’s that jolly old time of the year
Bridge:
Uncle Jack is coming with a pumpkin pie
Auntie’s making stuffing that you gotta try
Buddy spiked the eggnog
‘Til neither one can drive
But that's alright
Deck! The Halls with boughs of holly
Fa la la la it’s Christmas time
Tis the season, oh by golly too
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Wonderland of Winter
Written by: Rehya Stevens & Tom Keane
Silver white snowflakes
Are falling on peppermint tongues
Sweet notes of cinnamon with evergreen
Float on the breeze
As soon as December comes
Holly & mistletoe
beckoning lovers to find
Mystery packages under the tree
shimmer with curls that wind
When December comes
It’s a wonderful time of the year
Such a wonderful time of the year
Bundle up tight
Let’s go caroling out in the snow
I heard the weatherman say that it might
Be twenty below
When December comes
BRIDGE:
Even though the skies are dark and gray
The cardinal, she sings her song
Echoing so sweetly in refrain
It’s a winter wonderland
Wonderland
Interlude...
Bridge:
Even though the skies are dark and gray
The cardinal, still sings her song
Echoing such beauty in refrain
In a winter wonderland
It’s a wonderland of winter
Winter wonderland
It’s a wonderland of winter
Winter wonderland
It’s a wonderland of winter
Winter wonderland
It’s a wonderland of winter
Winter wonderland
It’s a wonderful time of the year
Winter wonderland
Such a wonderful time of the year
Winter wonderland
It’s a wonderland of winter

Santy Claus is loadin’ up the old red sleigh
Jingalin’ all the way
Full of good cheer for little girls and boys
Jingalin’ all the way
Rudolph is shinin’ up his bright red nose

Tuck your toesies in tight
And you better stay put ‘cos the man in red
Is coming down the chimney tonight
Sweet Sugar plum dreams of the old red sleigh

Jingalin’ all the way
Bringin’ happiness to little girls and boys
All around on Christmas day

Marry Me For Christmas
Written by: Rehya Stevens
You’ve got me so high, so light
I could fly home
Just like the snow
Ooo wee ooo wee
Will you marry me for Christmas
Ooo wee ooo wee
Let’s honeymoon through new years eve
You’re lookin so tight Mr. Right
Like the star of a movie show
And I’m all dressed up in white tonight
There’s no better place to go
Hear the sleigh bells
Jinglin all the way
To a place where
We’ll go to say I do, I do
And merry Christmas too
Hear the sleigh bells
Jinglin all the way
To a place where
We’ll go to say I do, I do
And merry Christmas too
Ooo wee ooo wee
Say you’ll marry me
Ooo wee ooo wee
Let’s honeymoon through new years eve
Ooo wee ooo wee
Say you’ll marry me
Come on…
Let’s call up the minister down the road
Pick up some flowers from Annies
I hear she’s got a new fellow
What’s his name, Stanley?
Tell her to bring that little Yorkie of hers
(Laugh)
He’s so cute!

Christmas In My Heart
Written By: Rehya Stevens
Pretty lights
Sparkling through window panes
Children wait listening for Santa’s sleigh
Evergreen, pumpkin pie
And carols fill the air
Laughter by the fireside
And memories to share
Christmas time is here again
Time for love, good cheer and happiness
For me a you
It’s Christmas everywhere
And it’s ours to share
But the most magical thing of all
Aren’t the reindeer who fly
It’s the mistletoe that’s occupied
By you and I
That makes it Christmas time
In my heart tonight
Tonight
Tonight

Christmas is Coming Soon
Written by: Rehya Stevens
Put up the evergreen
It's a necessity
Christmas is coming soon
Trim all the branches
For the circumstances
For Christmas is coming soon
Get the house a 'glowing
The snow blowers blowing
Yes, Christmas is coming soon
The dogs are a'barking
The carols are harking
Yes, Christmas is coming soon
Call the chimney sweep
Then head down to the beauty shop
For you don't want to be unprepared
Rsvp to the neighbor's down the block
They host the event of the year
Get dressed for the party
Try not be tardy
For Christmas is coming soon
Bring something delightful, delicious to die for
For Christmas is coming soon
Pick up a bottle of wine
From the little corner store
Drop by the post office too
Only to find there's a line around the door
There's simply too much to do
Squeeze sugar white mountains
On gingerbread houses
For Christmas is coming soon
The kids are debating
And your head is aching
But, Christmas is coming soon
The clock is tick tocking
So hang up those stockings
Yes, Christmas is coming soon
And finish the shopping
While stores are a'hopping
Yes, Christmas is coming soon
Wrap the presents up
Then tie each one with a bow
You don't want to be unprepared
Let the chestnuts pop by the fire
Oh, heaven knows
There's not one detail to spare
The kitchens a'splatter
With gravy and batter
And Christmas is coming soon
The Dishes are clanging
The door knocker's banging
And Christmas is coming soon
Toast to family friends
Hey, let's pour another round
Reminisce and share all this is new
Fill up your plate there's enough to go around
And plenty of leftovers too
Wearily, wearily
Tuck the kids into bed
Christmas is coming soon
Ever contrarily
They'll sleep but barely
'Cos Christmas is coming soon
Happy, happy joyful
We gather round the hearth
At 5 am in the morning
After presents let's go
Build a snowman in the yard
And by half past noon we'll be snoring
Gone is a flurry
The hustle, the hurry
The new year is 'round the bend
With new stories to tell
We must say our farewells
'Til the season comes 'round again
'Til the season comes 'round again

Santa, Won’t You Hurry?
Written by: Rehya Stevens & Tom Keane
Sleigh bells are ringin’ all over town
Carolers sing along to the sound
Of people everywhere celebrating
A merry Christmas
Shoppers rush like a merry go round
Merrily with the treasures they’ve found
People everywhere anticipating
A merry Christmas
But I don’t care about the presents
underneath my tree
But I’m beggin’ you
Santa, please - there’s one thing I need
I know you’ve got a lot of things to do
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Cuz I’m here waiting patiently
Oh, Santa I’m tryin’ not to worry
I know you’ve gotta take it up with your crew
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Swoop on by my roof
And bring my baby right down my chimney
'Tis the season for parties and shows
Invitations from people you know
And everywhere you go are salutations
"Have a merry Christmas"
And every night when you light up the tree
Is one more chance to make a new memory
With everything aglow for merry making
A merry Christmas
But I’ll just hang the mistletoe
And hold my pillow tight
Dreamin’ of just one thing to
To make it right
There's on thing I need
I know you’ve got a lot of things to do
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Cuz I’ve been waiting patiently
Oh, Santa I’m tryin’ not to worry
I know you've gotta take it up with your crew
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Swoop on by my roof
And bring my baby right down my chimney
I’ve been oh so good this year
I hope you feel inspired
To bring me just one thing
I need tonight
Santa, make it alright
I know you’ve got a lot of things to do
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Cuz I’m here waiting patiently
Oh, Santa I’m tryin’ not to worry
I'm sure you’ve gotta take it up with your crew
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Swoop on by my roof
And bring my baby right down my chimney
Santa Santa, Santa won't you hurry?
Santa won't you hurry?
Cuz I’m here waiting patiently
Oh, Santa I’m tryin’ not to worry
I'm sure you’ve gotta take it up with your crew
But, Santa won’t you hurry?
Swoop on by my roof
And bring my baby right down my chimney
Santa Santa, Santa won't you hurry?
I need my baby...
Santa Santa, Santa won't you hurry?

Please Come Home
Written by: Rehya Stevens & Gene Black
Blessings to the earth
And good will to man
But if I had one wish, I'd wish
For peace with you again
At Christmas time
All the stars are shinin'
On this holy, holy night
And on this war we've been fighting
When heaven knows
Only love can make it right
So this is my reason for callin'
I wanna to tell you I'm sorry
I was wrong, Baby please come home
Well this is the season for giving
And forgetting
So remember, how I love you so
Baby come home for Christmas
Come home, for Christmas
I may not have all the answers
like the wise men do
But we could cast away our doubts
And we could have faith
in what love can do
All the stars are shinin'
On this lonely, lonely night
And on this love we've been hidin'
When lord knows
Love's the only thing that's gonna make it right
So this is my reason for callin'
I'm here to tell you I'm sorry
I was wrong, Baby please come home
And if you need a reason for giving
And forgetting
Just remember, how I love you so
Baby come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
I was so wrong
Mmmm...
Baby please forgive me
Baby this is my reason for callin'
I'm here to tell you I'm sorry
I was wrong, please come home
Well this is the season for giving
And forgetting
But remember, how I love you so
I still love you so
I can't let you go
I gotta let you know
Baby please come home
Oh I...
I still love you so
I can't let you go
I gotta let you know
Baby please come
Come home
Please, please
Say you'll come on home
For Christmas
I was wrong
Baby...
Please, please
Baby come home for Christmas

Santa Baby
Written by: Joan Javits & Philip Springer
Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you, dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year, I could be just as good
If you check off my Christmas list
Santa baby, I want a yacht and really that's not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa honey, one little thing I really need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and checks
Sign your "X" on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean on the phone
Santa baby, so hurry down my chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry, tonight

Santa Claus is Comin' to Town
John Frederick Coots and Haven Gillespie
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's making a list
He's checking it twice
He's going to find out
Who's naughty and nice

He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
With little tin horns, little tin drums

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town

So you better be real nice
Cuz Santa Claus is Comin' to Town!

All Through the Night/The Holly & the Ivy
(TRADITIONAL)
Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee
All through the night
Guardian angels God will send thee
All through the night
Soft the drowsy hours are creeping
Hill and dale in slumber sleeping
I my loved ones watch are keeping
All through the night
(Interlude: "The Holly & the Ivy)
O'er thy spirit gently stealing,
Visions of delight revealing
Breathes a pure and holy feeling
All through the night
While the angels sigh
On this holy, holy night

A Christmas Song (feat. Chris Standring)
Written by: Rehya Stevens & Jon Kubis
Twinkling lights through window panes
Chimneys white with billowed clouds
Evergreen - fragrant on the breeze
And folks are hanging stars up on the bows
Yuletide gatherings
Making spirits bright
All our troubles seem worlds away
With friends stopping by
For no reason why
But to say happy holidays
Presents under the topless trees
Stockings hung by the fire
Little ones try not to sleep
Listening for sleigh bells in the sky
Future memories
Making spirits bright
All our worries seem worlds away
With friends stopping by
For no reason why
But to say happy holidays
Soon the winter will melt into spring
And we'll be glad to see the flowers
On a world in bloom when the birds start to sing
But until then may your dreams all come true
And happy holidays to you
