GUEST,winterbright New Christmas/Solstice/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa songs (67* d) RE: New Xmas/Solstice/Hanukkah/Kwansaa Songs 09 Dec 02


There's a beautiful song on an old Harry Belafonte album; it (the song) is called "Borning Day" and may be old or not. The album cover has H.B. walking on a brick road... can't remember the title.
First verse is:
Mary and the baby hungry; oh, we know what hungry be; so we bring them peas and rice, a little ginger tea... only pigeon peas and rice, a little giner tea; Mary thank us with her eyes; she pour the same as we...
It's a west Indian-type flavor; not your usual Christmas song.
