    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 twist
    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 riding 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 rock

    What a bright time, it's the right time
    To rock the night away
    Jingle bell time is a swell time
    To go riding 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
    That’s the jingle bell rock

    I'm 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'm dreaming of a white Christmas
    With every Christmas card I write
    May your days be merry and bright
    And may all your Christmases be white

    (I’m 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’m dreaming of a white Christmas
    With every Christmas card I write
    May your days be merry and bright
    And may all your Christmases be white
    And may all your Christmases be white

    Oh, the weather outside is frightful
    But the fire is so delightful
    And since we've no place to go
    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

    Oh, it doesn't show signs of stopping
    And I've brought some corn for popping
    The lights are turned way down low
    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

    When we finally kiss goodnight
    How I hate going out in the storm
    But if you'll really hold me tight
    All the way home I'll be warm

    The fire is slowly dying
    And, my dear, we're still goodbying
    But as long as you love me so
    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

    (Na, na, na, na)
    C'mon
    (Na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na)

    When we finally kiss goodnight
    How I hate going out in the storm
    But if you'll really hold me tight
    All the way home I'll be warm

    The fire is slowly dying
    And, my dear, we're still goodbying
    But as long as you love me so
    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

    We’re looking for the King
    The new Messiah
    We’re following the star
    Shining brighter
    Old man, won’t you help us if you can
    He shook his head but he pointed his hand

    There’s a new kid in town
    And he’s lying in a manger down the road
    There’s a new kid in town
    But he’s just another baby, I suppose
    Heaven knows
    There’s a new kid in town
    Here in Bethlehem

    [Kelly]
    I see you’ve traveled far
    Bearing treasures
    You say these gifts are for
    The new King’s pleasures
    I have heard that a King might come
    But up ‘til now there hasn’t been one

    [Duet]
    There’s a new kid in town
    And he’s lying in a manger down the road
    There’s a new kid in town
    But he’s just another baby, I suppose
    Heaven knows
    There’s a new kid in town
    Here in Bethlehem

    All aboard

    It was a big night in December, Chattanooga Tennessee
    All the old folks still remember that snowy Christmas eve
    The way Santa saved that holiday, it's still hard to believe

    Oh, the weather man was calling for the snow to keep coming down
    And the way that it was falling, Rudolph never saw the ground
    By Christmas day, Santa’s sleigh never made it to town

    Then all at once they heard the mighty whistle blow (ha ha)
    The ground started shakin’
    It even shook the mistletoe

    And then comin’ around the mountain
    Right through the steam and smoke
    Pulling sixteen coaches, shouting ho ho ho
    Who needs a sleigh, Santa's got a choo-choo train

    Well now, he could barely hold it coming down the hill so fast
    Yeah that shiny locomotive made it town in no time flat
    But you can't go slow with a Christmas load
    Coming down the railroad tracks

    When he pulled into the station and he finally shut her down
    There was a big old celebration, everyone gathered around
    They passed out toys to the girls and boys from miles around

    Then all at once they heard the mighty whistle blow (ha ha)
    The ground started shakin’
    It even shook the mistletoe

    And then goin’ around the mountain
    Right through the steam and smoke
    Pulling sixteen coaches, shouting ho ho ho
    Who needs a sleigh, Santa's got a choo-choo train

    Oh yeah, ain’t no need to fly away
    Santa's got a choo-choo train

    Another Christmas day
    Will come and go away
    And I’ve got so far to go
    But I wanna go home
    I need to go home

    Maybe surrounded by
    Strangers and Christmas lights
    I shouldn't feel so alone
    But I wanna go home
    God I miss you, you know

    I can close my eyes and see the angel on the tree
    A blanket of snow outside
    And all my friends and family
    And though I know that you're no further than a call away
    I need to see your face
    A call could never be the same

    Another Christmas day
    Will come and go away
    And I won’t leave you alone
    No, I want to go home
    I need to go home

    Let me go home
    I'm just too far from where you are
    I want to go home

    Now the reasons I'm so far away ain’t good enough
    Whatever they need me for
    I know that I need you more
    So I'll do the things I gotta do to get back to you
    I need you to believe
    I'll make it back by Christmas Eve

    Another Christmas day
    Will come and go away
    And I won’t leave you alone
    No, I'm going to go home
    I'm going to be home

    Though I'm surrounded by
    This cold December night
    I feel so alone
    I'm gonna to go home
    Babe, I miss you you know

    Let me go home
    I've had my run, baby, I'm done
    I'm coming back home

    Let me go home
    It'll all be alright
    When I'm holding you tight
    Cause this Christmas I'm home

    Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
    In the lane, snow is glistening
    A beautiful sight
    We're happy tonight
    Walking in a winter wonderland

    Gone away is the bluebird
    Here to stay is a new bird
    He sings a love song
    As we go along
    Walking in a winter wonderland

    In the meadow we can build a snowman
    We’ll pretend that he is Parson Brown
    He'll say, Are you married?
    We'll say, No, man
    But you can do the job
    When you're in town

    Later on, we'll conspire
    As we dream by the fire
    To face unafraid
    The plans that we made
    Walking in a winter wonderland

    Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
    Jack Frost nipping at your nose
    Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
    And folks dressed up like Eskimos

    Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
    Help to make the season bright
    Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
    Will find it hard to sleep tonight

    They know that Santa's on his way
    He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
    And every mother's child is gonna spy
    To see if reindeer really know how to fly

    And so I'm offering this simple phrase
    To kids from one to ninety-two
    Although it's been said many times, many ways
    Merry Christmas to you

    I’ll have a blue Christmas without you
    I’ll be so blue thinking about you
    Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
    Won’t be the same, dear, if you're not here with me

    And when those blue snowflakes start fallin’
    That's when those blue memories start callin’
    You’ll be doing alright, with your Christmas of white
    But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas

    Blue, blue
    Blue, blue
    I think I’m feeling better already
    Blue, blue

    You’ll be doing alright, with your Christmas of white
    But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas

    I'll be home for Christmas
    You can count on me
    Please have snow and mistletoe
    And presents under tree

    Christmas Eve will find me
    Where the love light gleams
    I'll be home for Christmas
    If only in my dreams

    City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
    Dressed in holiday style
    In the air there's
    A feeling of Christmas

    Children laughing, people passing
    Meeting smile after smile
    And on every street corner
    You'll hear

    Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
    It's Christmas time in the city
    Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling), hear them ring (hear them ring)
    Soon it will be Christmas day

    Strings of street lights, even stop lights
    Blink of bright red and green
    As the shoppers rush home
    With their treasures

    Hear the snow crunch
    See the kids bunch
    This is Santa's big scene
    And above all the bustle you'll hear

    Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
    It's Christmas time in the city
    Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling), hear them ring (hear them ring)
    Soon it will be Christmas day

  • written by Blake Shelton, Dorothy Shackleford

    There’s music in the city
    And the lights are on display
    There's a big old tree for all to see
    Where the children run and play

    I look out through my window
    Something just don't seem right
    Til I said hello and heard her voice
    On the other end of the line

    Now it's Christmas, Christmas I'm hurryin' on my way
    Christmas, Christmas, like I'm ridin’ in a one horse sleigh
    Well, I don't have to hear no jingle bells, just the ringin’ of the phone
    Mama just called and said it's time for me to come home

    The pies are in the oven
    You can almost taste the air
    And it warms my heart to feel her love
    And know how much she cares

    It's funny how going back
    Can get you back to where you belong
    It’s the difference in just a melody
    And my favorite Christmas song

    Well, it's Christmas, Christmas, I'm hurryin' on my way
    Christmas, Christmas, like I'm ridin’ in a one horse sleigh
    Well, I don't have to hear no jingle bells, just the ringin’ of the phone
    Mama just called and said it's time for you to come home

    There's so many things we can do this Christmas
    Just once I want to go on a ride in a one horse sleigh
    Go caroling down the street while everybody listens
    Singing Jingle Bells, jingle bells jingling all the way

    And if it snows just a little too much and there ain’t no place to go
    Baby, if you want you can show me what happens underneath the mistletoe
    Hang up the cards from the people we love who miss us
    Call up the neighbors and open up a bottle of cheer

    Mmm, there's so many we things can do this Christmas
    Ha ha, join in this celebration, it’s the very best time of year
    Oh yeah
