5 Little Christmas Trees
5 little Christmas Trees
Standing all alone
Their heart were very sad
‘Cause they hadn’t found a home.
Then chop went the ax
And down fell the tree
And off they went with a happy family!
(continue from 4-1 Christmas Trees)
No little Christmas Trees
Standing all alone
Their hearts were very happy
‘Cause they all found a home!!!

Where Is Santa
(Tune: Where is Thumbkin)
Where is Santa? Where is Santa?
Here I am! Here I am!
Merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry Christmas
Ho Ho Ho! Ho Ho Ho!

Lighting All the Candles
(Tune: I’ve been working on the railroad)
I am lighting all the candles
On this Hanukkah night.
I am lighting all the candles
To see them shining bright.
Flicker, flickers little candles,
Fill me with your glow.
Now the time has come to count them,
Ready, set and go
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8.

I’m a little Dreidel
(Tune: I’m a little teapot)
I’m a little dreidel made of clay
Spin me around when you want to play.
When I fall down if you don’t win,
Just pick me up and spin again.

Kwanzaa’s Here
(Tune: Three Blind Mice)
Red, green, black,
Red, green, black.
Kwanzaa’s here,
Kwanzaa’s here.
The decorations are quite a sight,
We light a candle every night,
The holiday is filled with light.
Kwanzaa’s here.

This Year’s Drawing to an End
(Tune: Mary Had A Little Lamb)
This year’s drawing to an end,
To an end, to an end.
This year’s drawing to an end.
Soon we’ll start a new one.

Out with the old, in with the new,
In with the new, in with the new,
Out with the old and in with the new,
On January 1st.
