.38 Special Album

Jingle bell, jingle bell
Jingle bell rock
Jingle bell swing
And jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin'
Up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell
Jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in
Jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin'
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 glidin' in a
one horse sleigh
Giddy-up, jingle horse
Pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and mingle
In a jinglin' beat

Christmas lights out in the yard
A wreath hung our door
There was Christmas music on the radio
And I stare outside my window
Waiting for Santa to come
I couldn't wait to see under our tree when
Santa's work was done

Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
Everybody all over the world tonight
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
It's Christmastime again

All year long I tried to be
As good as I could be
Just a boy with all the childhood dreams
And I sit down and write,
"Dear Santa, don't forget to come my way.
I'll see you soon and please make room
for my guitar in your sleigh"

Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
Everybody all over the world tonight
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
It's Christmastime again
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
People all sharin' their hearts tonight
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
It's Christmas all over the world

Bridge:
Have a happy Christmas
And make a joyful noise
Have a happy Christmas
From all us wild-eyed boys

I never got that pony
But they taught me to believe
That what means the most is only
To give more than receive
And if we could wish together
I'd wish the world in harmony
'Cause if Christmas could last forever
What better world it'd be

Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
Everybody all over the world tonight
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
It's Christmastime again
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah it's Christmas
It's Christmastime again

Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
Everybody all over the world tonight
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
Everybody all over the world
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
People all sharin' their hearts tonight
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas
It's Christmastime again
Singing Hallelujah it's Christmas

(Don Barnes, Jim Peterik)

It's Christmas and I miss you
Your memory
Still lingers on
You're not really gone
And this message
Will find you
Through space and time
This love lives on
Here and beyond


And I will hear you
When Christmas bells are ringing
I will touch you
Though we're far apart
And I will feel you
When I hear the voices singing
Like magic when I'm dreaming
You are here
An angel in my heart.
But it's Christmas and I miss you
How simple it used to be
Just you and me


But when the bells ring
I will hear you in the music
When the angels sing
It will be our song
I will call you
With a love across the ages
I find the words beyond the pages
To describe my love
But it's Christmas and I miss you

Bridge: No one can tell where this road will lead
I guess we should follow our hearts
I'm not sure of much, but I know one thing
Nothing can keep us apart

And I will hear you
When Christmas bells are ringing
I will touch you
Though we're far apart
And I will feel you
When I hear the voices singing
You're a shining star burning in my heart
And when the bells ring
I will hear you in the music
When the angels sing
It will be our song
And I will hold you
With a love across the ages
I find the words beyond the pages
To describe my love

(Jim Peterik)

Now all year long we've been waiting for the season to come
Working and savin', dreamin' 'bout the Christmastime fun
Now the presents are under the tree
I've been as good as I can be
Let's call the gang over
Sounds like a party to me

While the little elves are workin' and the kids are in bed
Reindeer are flyin' way up over our heads
Everything is peaceful
The stars are clear and bright
We're gonna throw a party, celebrate the new year
Just get some 38 Special holiday cheer
This house will be a-rockin' on a wild-eyed Christmas night.

Well we got a few hours till Santa starts comin' our way
He's tunin' up his reindeer; the elves are loadin' the sleigh
The mistletoe is hangin' above
And everybody's lookin' for love
So baby come a rockin'; the moonlight's slippin' away

While the little elves are workin' and the kids are in bed
Reindeer are flyin' way up over our heads
Everything is peaceful
The stars are clear and bright
We're gonna throw a party, celebrate the new year
Just get some 38 Special holiday cheer
This house will be a-rockin' on a wild-eyed Christmas night.

So baby, get ready, get dressed, it's time to rock
Once the music starts pumpin', you won't be able to stop
Right about quarter to four
Just when we can't take anymore
He'll be comin' down the chimney, just when we're ready to drop

While the little elves are workin' and the kids are in bed
Reindeer are flyin' way up over our heads
Everything is peaceful
The stars are clear and bright
We're gonna throw a party, celebrate the new year
Just get some 38 Special holiday cheer
This place will be a-rockin' on a wild-eyed Christmas night.

(Donnie VanZant, Danny Chauncey)

Mama, words can't express
How I feel about you
Especially at this Christmastime
You went out of your way,
Thoughtful gifts that you gave
A love of giving, you passed on to us

Christmastime, Lord I love you
Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair
Christmastime, oh I miss you
I still see you in that old rockin' chair

You were always there for me
Through all of your life
I still miss our telephone calls
The jokes that you told
And the laughter we shared
Oh Lord, that's what I miss the most

Christmastime, Lord I love you
Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair
Christmastime, oh I miss you
Sittin' in that old rockin' chair

Bridge:
Lord, keep her safe in your arms
Right where she belongs
'Cause I know she's in heaven
Mama, you're finally home
Oh, you're finally home

Christmastime, Lord I love you
Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair
Christmastime, oh I miss you
Sittin' in that old rockin' chair

I still see you in that old rockin' chair

Merry Christmas
Always know that I'm thinking of you
Merry Christmas
