White X-mas
I'm da'reaming of a white Charismas
just like da ones I used to know
where da tree-tops glisten
and children listen
to hear sleighbells in da snow.
I'm da'reaming of a white Charismas
with every Charisma-card I 'rite
May your day be merry and bright
and may all of your Charismases be white.
(Uh-ah, dreamin' of a white
Uh-ah, dreamin' of a white)
I'm da'reaming of a white Charismas
just like da ones I used to know
where da tree-tops glisten
and children listen
to hear sleighbells in da snow.
(Uh-ah, da'reamin' of a white
Uh-ah, da'reamin' of a white)

High from 3-top
High from 3-top in da sky
X-mas star is shining
joy in all da children's eye
no more tear, no more crying
put your little hand in mine
never touch the glass of wine
Santa Claus is clever
Charismas is forever
Peter comes from Amsterdam
and he wants a drumkit
Mary wants a little lamb
I make sure she gets it
All your wishes will come true
put your trust in you know who
Santa Claus is clever
Charismas is forever
Sleighbells, sleighbells in da snow
is the sound of Charismas
Girl stands under mistletoe
you may go and kiss her
Let's make love and (let's not fight)
let's not fight
On a holy holy holy holy
(X-mas night)
Chrisamas night
Santa Claus is clever
Charismas is forever
Snowflox
Snowflox are coming in a row
where to, where from, where should I know
the temperature is always low
when there is coming snow
it's getting in most everywhere
whenever there's a hole it's there
I got it in my underwear
dem bells are getting cold
Snowflox are coming in a row
where to, where from, where do they go
when summer come they do not show
they turn into rainbow
and at the end a pot of gold
will be standing I've been told
maybe one day before I'm old
I'll get da pot of gold
Dem snowflox are coming
dem snowflox are coming
Snowflox are coming in a row
and when they land upon a stove
they hiss just like a whale that blow
and then they are no more
it's almost like da Christmastime
it's gone as quick as gin and lime
at "Sloppy Joe's" in Bethleheim
right here on Tobago
Dem snowflox are coming
dem snowflox are coming
dem snowflox are coming
dem snowflox are coming.

Rudolph
Oh, yeah man
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
had a very shiney nose
and if you ever saw it
you would even say it glowed
All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him name
They never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer's game
Then one foggy X-mas Eve
Santa came to say
Rudolph with your nose so bright
won't you guide my sleigh tonight
Then all the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
you go down in history
