Richard Carpenter composed the music for this song in 1966 when he was 19 years old. Frank Pooler wrote the lyrics twenty years earlier, in 1946, when he also was only 19 years old. The song Pooler had written was to be a Christmas gift for his girlfriend, whom he was missing while being away from her during a visit with his parents at Christmas time. However, their relationship ended before he was able present it to her.

Twenty years later, Pooler was the choir director at California State University in Long Beach, when both Karen and Richard Carpenter were members of the choir. Richard and Karen were performing locally during the Christmas season and had tired of playing the usual Christmas fare. Richard asked Pooler, their favorite professor, if he had any ideas for different Christmas songs.

Pooler remembered the Christmas song he had written many years before and mentioned it to Richard, adding that he didn't think much of the melody anymore. Richard said he would try his hand at writing new music for the lyrics. Within about 15 minutes he was finished creating a song, written by two teenagers who were a generation apart, that was destined to become a Christmas classic.

The song was first released as a single (yes, a 45) on November 20, 1970, and earned gold record status. This song sparked the idea of a Christmas album by The Carpenters, and on October 13, 1978, "Christmas Portrait" was released with this newly recorded version of the song. Karen re-recorded her vocals for the album version as she felt that she could give the vocals a more mature treatment. This newly recorded version was presented on their TV Christmas special in 1978, as seen here, and became a hit all over again.

Karen Carpenter - March 2, 1950 - February 4, 1983 (32 years old)
Frank Pooler - March 29, 1926 - January 19, 2013 (86 years old)

Lyrics:
[Intro]
Oh, Santa's gonna come and make him mine this Christmas
Santa's gonna come and make him mine, mine
Oh Santa
Santa's gonna come and make him mine this Christmas
Santa's gonna come and make him mine, mine
Oh Santa

[Verse 1]
Santa
If you get this letter
Won't you help me out?
I know you're kinda busy with your elves right now
And I don't know how
You do the things you do while I sleep on Christmas eve
But it's amazing
And I bet that you could bring me back my baby
Because every time I see Christmas lights
I feel this burn inside
And I just can't take it

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I saw them shopping last week
And his new girl was so bleak
And then I swore to myself
Santa's gonna come and make him mine this Christmas night

[Chorus]
Ho, ho, ho
Santa's gonna come and make you mine this Christmas
Santa's gonna come and make you mine, ho, ho, ho
Santa's gonna come and make you mine this Christmas night

[Verse 2]
Oh Santa
I heard that it's really gonna snow this year
So I hope Rudolph and them other eight reindeer
Get you safely here
So you can scoop him up and swoop him right down my chimney
I've been really, really, really good this year
So put on that red suit and make him appear
’Cause Christmas cheer
Just ain't the same without my baby
Come on, oh Kris Kringle, send me help

[Pre-Chorus 2]
They say it's unrealistic
But I believe in you Saint Nick
So grant this wish for me right quick
Santa won't you come and make him mine this Christmas night?

[Chorus]
Ho, ho, ho
Santa's gonna come and make you mine this Christmas
Santa's gonna come and make you mine, ho, ho, ho
Santa's gonna come and make you mine this Christmas night

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, Santa
Oh, Santa
Oh, Santa
Come on, Santa

[Refrain]
Oh Santa
Santa gon' come and make him mine this Christmas
Santa gon' come and make him mine, mine
Oh Santa
Santa gon' come and make him mine this Christmas
Santa gon' come and make him mine, mine

[Verse 3]
Oh, Santa Claus
If you get this letter, please don't make me wait
'Cause all December I'll be counting down the days
So hop on your sleigh
I promise that I won't forget the milk and cookies

[Pre-Chorus 3]
The trees all sparkly and gold
But inside I feel so cold
So soon as you leave the North Pole
Santa won't you come and make him mine this Christmas?

[Chorus]
Santa's gonna come and make you mine, ho, ho, ho
Santa's gonna come and make you mine this Christmas

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

While shepherds watch their flock by night,
They see a bright new shining star,
They hear a choir sing a song, the music seem to come from afar.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

For a moment the world was aglow, all the bells rang out
There were tears of joy and laughter, people shouted
"Let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace."

Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, came to Bethlehem that night,
They found no place to bear her child, not a single room was in sight.

And then they found a little nook, in a stable all forlorn,
And in a manger cold 'n' dark, Mary's little boy was born.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

Oh a moment still worth was a glow, all the bells rang out
There were tears of joy and laughter, people shouted
"let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace".

Oh My Lord...

“Step Into Christmas” was released in 1973 and reached #1 on the Billboard Christmas Singles chart. During the instrumental break, Elton’s lyricist Bernie Taupin can be seen “hitting” the gongs (actually played by percussionist Ray Cooper), after which Elton holds up his beloved Watford Hornets Football Club membership card.

"Like It's Christmas" Lyrics:

The snow on the ground
The love in the air
The sleigh bells are ringing
This is what it's all about
The fire is warm
The angels are singing
And I don't wanna miss
A single thing
Don't wanna put an end to all this cheer
But as long as you're with me
It's always that time of the year
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Never wanna stop
Feeling like the first thing on your wish list
Right up at the top
I can't deny what I'm feeling inside
Nothing fake about the way you bring me to life
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Every day that I'm with you
Look at the lights
Twinkling bright
24/7
Every inch of Central Park
Is covered in white
This could be Heaven
And I don't wanna miss
A single thing
Don't wanna put an end to all this cheer
But as long as you're with me
It's always that time of the year
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Never wanna stop
Feeling like the first thing on your wish list
Right up at the top
I can't deny what I'm feeling inside
Nothing fake about the way you bring me to life
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Every day that I'm with you
Every day that I'm with you
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Never wanna stop
Feeling like the first thing on your wish list
Right up at the top (and I can't deny)
I can't deny what I'm feeling inside
Nothing fake about the way you bring me to life
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Every day that I'm with you
I can't deny what I'm feeling inside
No matter the reason, no matter the season
My heart'll keep beating, you better believe
You make every day feel like it's Christmas
Every day that I'm with you
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Every day that I'm with you
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Every day that I'm with you

Music video for Christmas Wrapping by Spice Girls. I used a video I put together for My Strongest Suit earlier this year.

LYRICS:

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in jingle bell square
In the frosty air.

What a bright time, its the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
Thats the jingle bell rock

What a bright time, its the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
Thats the jingle bell,
Thats the jingle bell,
Thats the jingle bell rock

Thats the jingle bell rock

REMASTERED IN HD!

Originally released in December 1987 in conjunction with the charity compilation album A Very Special Christmas.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

But the very next day you gave it away (You gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (Special)
