Subject: RE: 'Secular' Holiday Songs
Yeah, but the song itself was a hit for Gayla Peevy back in the '50s.
I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas
Another kids' Christmas song from the '50s that Gene Autry sang but that is rarely heard anymore is "If It Doesn't Snow On Christmas"
and there was also
"Oh, By Gosh, By Golly (It's Time For Mistletoe And Holly)"
And a current country Christmas favorite is:
Santa Looked A Lot Like Daddy
And these are relatively new:
Merry Christmas With Love
Don't Save It All For Christmas Day
Old Toy Trains by Roger Miller
