Mamaroneck Ave School Chorus

A LA Nanita NanaArtist Name
00:00 / 03:37

Part I

A la nanita nana, nanita ella, nanita ella

Mi niña tiene sueño, bendito sea, bendito sea

A la nanita nana, nanita ella, nanita ella

Mi niña tiene sueño, bendito sea, bendito sea

Fuentecita que corre clara y sonora

Ruiseñor que en la selva, cantando y llora

Calla mientras la cuna, se balancea

A la nanita nana, nanita ella

Part II

Lullaby, oh lullably

Hush my baby, sleep my little one

Lullaby, oh lullaby

Hush my baby, sleep my little one

Hear the stream dance on a wind passing by

Nightingale chants a joyous reply

The cradle sways and stars fill the sky

As nature sings her sweet lullaby

Sleigh Ride, arr. Mark BrymerArtist Name
00:00 / 03:19

**** Just hear those sleigh bells jingling,

Ring ting tingling too

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you

Outside the snow is falling

And friends are calling "yoo hoo,"

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you.

​

Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, let's go,

Let's look at the show,

We're riding in a wonderland of snow.

Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, it's grand,

Just holding your hand,

We're gliding along with a song

Of a wintry fairy land

​

Our cheeks are nice and rosy

And comfy cozy are we

We're snuggled up together

Like two birds of a feather would be

Let's take that road before us

And sing a chorus or two #######

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you.

 

There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray

It'll be the perfect ending a perfect day

We'll be singing the songs we love to sing

Without a single stop

At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop.

Pop! pop! pop!

There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy

When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie

It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives

These wonderful things are the things

We remember all through our lives!     *******

​

###### Come on, it's lovely weather now

Lovely weather now

​

For a sleigh ride together with you.

I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas - BGEC Elementary ChorusArtist Name
00:00 / 03:07

Not a lion, not a tiger

Not a bear or kangaroo

Not a donkey or a monkey

No they would never do

​

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

I don't want a doll, no dinky tinkertoy

I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

​

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?

He won't have to use the dirty chimney flue

Just bring him through the front door

That's the easy thing to do

​​​​

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
   (I want a hippopotamus for Christmas)

Only a hippopotamus will do
   (Nothing else will do)

​

No crocodiles, or rhinoceroseses

I only like hippopotamuseses

And hippopotamuses like me, too!

​

Not a tortoise, not a porpoise
A zebra will never do
Not an eagle, or a beagle

Just one thing at the zoo

​

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

Mom says the hippo would eat me up

But then teacher says the hippo is a vegetarian

​

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

I don’t think Santa Claus will mind, do you?

Oh there's room for him in our two car garage

I'd feed him there and wash him there

And give him his massage

​

I can see me now on Christmas morning

Creeping down the stairs

Oh, what joy and what surprise

When I open up my eyes

To see a hippo hero standing there

​

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
   (I want a hippopotamus for Christmas)

Only a hippopotamus will do
   (Nothing else will do)

​

No crocodiles, or rhinoceroseses

I only like hippopotamuseses

And hippopotamuses

No not rhinoceroseses,
Yes, hip-po-pot-u-mus-es like me, too!

It's true!
