The Coventry Carol (Choral)/The Christmas Song

[The Coventry Carol]
Lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye, bye lullay, lullay
Lullay, thou little tiny child
Bye, bye lullay, lullay

Oh sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day
This poor youngling for whom we sing
Bye, bye lullay, lullay

Herod the king in his reign
Charged he hath this day
His men of night, in his own sight
All children young to stay

Then woe is me, poor child for thee
And ever mourn and say
For thy parting not say, nor sing
Bye, bye lullay, lullay

[The Christmas Song]
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you!
