Deck The Halls Medley

from "Merry Christmas From Sesame Street" (1975)


Deck The Halls


featuring David (Northern Calloway),
Herry Monster, The Count Von Count (both Jerry Nelson),
Bert (Frank Oz), Ernie (Jim Henson), and Prairie Dawn (Fran Brill)


Herry: Oh, my favourite carol, “Wreck The Halls.”

David: No, Herry, that’s “Deck The Halls.”

Deck the hall with boughs of holly
Fa la la la la la la la la
'Tis the season to be jolly
Fa la la la la la la la la
Don we now our gay apparel
Fa la la la la la la la la
Troll the ancient yuletide carol
Fa la la la la la la la la



Jingle Bells


featuring Herry Monster (Jerry Nelson), David (Northern Calloway), and Gordon (Matt Robinson)


Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

Herry: Crashing through the snow.

David: Wait a minute, wait a minute. Isn’t that supposed to be, “Dashing through the snow?”

Herry: When I do it it’s crashing through the snow.

Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh
O’r the fields we go, laughing all the way, ha ha ha
Bells on bobtail ring, making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh



White Christmas


featuring Bob (Bob McGrath), Susan (Loretta Long), and Mr. Harold Hooper (Will Lee)


I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white



Winter Wonderland


featuring Big Bird (Carroll Spinney)


Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lanes
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
