As recorded by Augie Rios


Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
¿Dónde esta Santa Claus,
And the toys that he will leave?
Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
I look for him because it's Christmas Eve.

I know that I should be still sleeping,
But maybe he's not far away,
Out of the window I'm peeping,
Hoping to see him in his sleigh.

I hope he won't forget to clack his castanet,
And to his reindeer, say,
"Oh Pancho, Oh! Vixen, Oh! Pedro, Oh! Blitzen,"
Ole! Ole! Ole! (Santa Claus!)

Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
Oh, where is Santa Claus?
It's Christmas Eve.

I know that I should be still sleeping,
But maybe he's not far away,
Out of the window I'm peeping,
Hoping to see him in sleigh.

I hope he won't forget to crack his castanet,
And to his reindeer say,
"Oh Pancho, Oh! Vixen, Oh! Pedro, Oh! Blitzen,"
Ole! Ole! Ole! (Santa Claus!)

8. Mamacita, donde esta Santa Claus?
Oh where is Santa Claus?
It's Christmas Eve.

It's Christmas Eve.
It's Christmas Eve.
It's Christmas Eve.

(Spoken)
Alright, Mamacita.
I'll go to sleep now.

The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire) - Nat King Cole

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXVeDPKqhFo

I always thought that was called "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"...

Tony Bennett sang it last night on Conan, and it was really really good

 

[PhoenixRisen]

songs that stick in my head:
little drummer boy
silent night
away in manger

and then there is a lady called christy lane who does commercials for her Christmas CDs and even tho the commericals are cheesy looking they stick in my head (brainwashing?). But for some reason the lines "let the lesson of your love help us to see....that Christmas is the man from galilee" and "one day at a time sweet Jesus" stand out...however something about the little blonde girl in the commercials is sort of weird/creepy i dunno why--she looks out of it??, but happy at same time...i cant that explain it (maybe she has been brainwashed like I am being when I watch the commercial), if you've seen it you might know what i'm talking about

What's the best on-line radio station to listen to for christmas music?

I know EZ Rock is playing some in T.O. but it's way too soft for me.
104.5 CHUM seems to be all commercials.

 

[samurai black]

RUN DMC: Christmas in Hollis

 

[X-Gal123]

Silent Night
Hark the Herald
Little Drummer Boy
The Greatest Time of Year
Jingle Bells

The radio station I listen to for Christmas music is 93.9 WLIT

 

[Arkady Rossovich]

O Christmas Tree
Silent Night
Hark,The Heralds Sing
Deck The Halls

Mainly christmas carols.

 

[The Lizard]

Best secular song: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Best religious song: O Come Emmanuel

Best instrumental : A Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack

I always make a point of taking the Vince Guaraldi Charlie Brown CD to any Christmas party I go to, just in case the hosts don't have it in their music lineup for the evening. When that CD starts up and people hear the jazz kick in, everybody loves it.
