Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat


Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat

My version of the traditional Christmas song.

Christmas is coming,
The geese are getting fat,
Please put a penny
In the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny,
A ha'penny will do,
If you haven't got a ha'penny,
Then God bless you.

Little donkey - traditional christmas song





Traditional christmas song, sung by Tinyredrose (aged 7)

Little donkey
little donkey
on a dusty road
Got to keep on plodding onwards with your precious load

Been a long time,
little donkey,
through the winter's night
Don't give up now,
little donkey,
Bethlehem's in sight?

Ring out those bells tonight
Bethlehem, Bethlehem
Follow that star tonight
Bethlehem, Bethlehem

Little donkey, little donkey
Had a heavy day
Little donkey,carry mary safely on her way
carry Mary Safely on her way.

Who's that up the chimney - Christmas song



My version of this traditional (Scottish?) Christmas song

Who’s that up the chimney?

Who’s that up the chimney?

Who’s that up the chimney?

I hope it’s Santa Claus




I hope he’s brought some presents

Cause I’ve been really good




I hope it’s not the chimney sweep

That would be a swizz




I’d like to see his reindeer

Are their noses red?




I hope that he comes back again

Comes back again next year

It's gonna be Christmas - Christmas song



Original Christmas song written and performed by the HappyApe...

Enjoy!

It's gonna be Christmas

(uke G, C, D... fast ish...)

When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas Day

I've been good all year, I've been good and kind
I wanna be on Santa's list, don't wanna get left behind
Please please Santa Claus guide your sleigh my way

When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas Day

I like to get presents, I like to get toys
But one thing to remember, all you girls and boys
It's the time spent together thats the very very very best thing

When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas Day

I've put out the carrot, the whiskey and the cake,
I wonder how much food old Santa can take
I'm trying to get to sleep but I'm just wide awake!

When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas Day

Now my eyes are heavy and the room is dark
I feel good dreams start to warm my heart
And as I slide into sleep I hear the sleigh bells ring

When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas...
When I wake up in the morning it's gonna be Christmas Day

Twas the night before Christmas - xmas song



Original arrangement of the classic poem Twas the Night before Christmas (Public Domain)

A Visit From St. Nicholas/'Twas the Night Before Christmas
by Clement Clarke Moore

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;
"Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! on Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky,
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my hand, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.
His eyes -- how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night."

In the bleak midwinter - christmas song



In the Bleak Midwinter

Text: Christina G. Rossetti, 1830-1894
Music: The Happy Ape 2013.

1. In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,
in the bleak midwinter, long ago.

2. Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain;
heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign.
In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed
the Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.

3. Angels and archangels may have gathered there,
cherubim and seraphim thronged the air;
but his mother only, in her maiden bliss,
worshiped the beloved with a kiss.

4. What can I give him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
if I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
yet what I can I give him: give my heart.

Bring a Torch jeanette isabella - christmas nativity song



Traditional xmas song in the public domain

Arrangement by TheHappyape

Bring a torch, Jeanette, Isabelle!
Bring a torch, to the stable run
Christ is born. Tell the folk of the village
Jesus is born and Mary's calling.
Ah!* Ah! beautiful is the Mother!
Ah! Ah! beautiful is her child
Who is that, knocking on the door?
Who is it, knocking like that?
Open up, we've arranged on a platter
Lovely cakes that we have brought here
Knock! Knock! Knock! Open the door for us!
Knock! Knock! Knock! Let's celebrate!
It is wrong when the child is sleeping,
It is wrong to talk so loud.
Silence, now as you gather around,
Lest your noise should waken Jesus.
Hush! Hush! see how he slumbers;
Hush! Hush! see how fast he sleeps!
Softly now unto the stable,
Softly for a moment come!
Look and see how charming is Jesus,
Look at him there, His cheeks are rosy!
Hush! Hush! see how the Child is sleeping;
Hush! Hush! see how he smiles in dreams!

"Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella" (French: Un flambeau, Jeannette, Isabelle) is a Christmas carol which originated from the Provence region of France in the 16th century. The song is usually notated in 3/8 time.
The carol was first published in 1553 in France, and was subsequently translated into English in the 18th century. The song was originally not a song to be sung at Christmas, but rather dance music for French nobility.... Wikipedia

Up on the housetop



Traditional xmas song in the public domain

Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick

First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick

Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Also a ball and a whip that cracks
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick

Jolly old Saint Nicholas


Lyrics:

Jolly Old Saint 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 my dear old man,
Whisper what you'll bring to me;
Tell me if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve,
When I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black
With your pack you'll creep;
All the stockings you will find
Hanging in a row;
Mine will be the shortest one;
You'll be sure to know.
Johnny wants a pair of skates;
Susy wants a sled;
Nellie wants a story book,
one she hasn't read
As for me, I hardly know
so I'll go to rest;
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus,
What you think is best.

Letra:

Va a ser Navidad

( uke G, C , D. .. ish rápido ... )

Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser el día de Navidad

He sido bueno durante todo el año , he sido bueno y amable
Quiero estar en la lista de Santa Claus, no quiero que me deje atrás
Por favor, por favor, Santa Claus que su trineo guie mi camino

Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser el día de Navidad

Me gusta recibir regalos , me gusta tener juguetes
Pero una cosa que hay que recordar , todos lo que los niños y niñas
Es el tiempo que pasamos juntos esa es lo mejor de todo

Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser el día de Navidad

He puesto la zanahoria, el whisky y la torta ,
Me pregunto cuánta comida vieja Santa puede tomar
Estoy tratando de conciliar el sueño , pero sólo estoy despierto !

Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser el día de Navidad

Ahora mis ojos están pesados ​​y la habitación es oscura
Siento buenos sueños comienzan a calentar mi corazón
Y como me deslizo en el sueño oigo las campanas del trineo

Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser Navidad ...
Cuando me despierto por la mañana que va a ser el día de Navidad
