FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS SONG # 25 - WINTER WONDERLAND

 

Despite the general awfulness of the Christmas song there are however always exceptions to the rule and I have a short list of personal favourites

Without exception all my choices not only include the song but the best performer of that song and so in no particular order here is my twenty fifth selection.

 

Winter Wonderland

Music Written By Felix Bernard

Lyrics Written By Richard B. Smith

Performed By Darlene Love

 

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,

Then 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've made,

Walking in a winter wonderland.

 

In the meadow we can build a snowman,

And pretend that he's a circus clown

We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,

Until the other kids knock him down.

 

When it snows, ain't it thrilling,

Though your nose gets a chilling

We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,

Walking in a winter wonderland.
