Lyrics
Barney's Night Before Christmas
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, lean your ear this way. Don't you tell a single soul what I'm going to say.
Christmas Eve is coming soon. Now you dear old man, whisper what you'll bring to be, tell me if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve, when you're fast asleep, down the chimney broad and black, with my pack I'll creep.
All the stocking you will find, hanging in a row, mine will be the shortest one, you'll be sure to know.
Hannah wants: (A pair of skates!), Stephen wants: (A sled!), Keesha wants: (A picture book! Yellow, blue, and red!).
Now I think I'll leave to you what to give the rest. Choose for me, dear Santa Claus. You will know the best.

Waiting for Santa
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, lean your ear this way. Don't you tell a single soul what I'm going to say.
Christmas Eve is coming soon. Now you dear old man, whisper what you'll bring to be, tell me if you can.
Amy wants a brand new dress, Tina just wants toys. Adam wants a game to play with other girls and boys.
Luci wants a new guitar, Derek wants a bike. Michael told us Santa knows just what he would like.
Lots of special wishes are being made right now, and we know he hears them all, though we don't know how.
Everything he brings us will be so very right, as he travels 'round the world on this special night.
