Even older than Perry Como, The Andrews Sisters were known to have sung it. Still haven't located it.

things get lost here on the forum after a few days. Still would like to know more about this song. Maybe it wasn't Perry Como. That was just the information I was given. Thanks for your help.

Well, it's on a CD called A Merry Christmas With Bing Crosby and the Adndrew Sisters - there's even a song sample, if you follow the link. Songwriters were M. K. Jerome and Jack Scholl.

I had it as a kid, but I think it was June Alyson who sang it on my 78.

THE CHRISTMAS TREE ANGEL
(M. K. Jerome, Jack Scholl, 1950.)

While angels are shining the stars Christmas Eve,
A sweet little angel takes heavenly leave.
She likes to help Santa Claus dress up the tree,
So next Christmas morning, look up and you'll see—

CHORUS: Sweet Angie, the Christmas tree angel,
On the top of tippy, tippy top of the tree
All dressed up in stardust and tinsel.
"Have a very, very merry, merry Christmas," says she.

She colors the lights and she sprinkles the snow.
She hangs up the holly and bright mistletoe.
The loveliest angel you ever have met,
She makes Christmas one day we never forget. CHORUS

When Santa has filled all the stockings with toys,
And left all his gifts for the good girls and boys,
Sweet Angie is busy till dawn starts to break,
Arranging the toys till the children awake.

Then with the morning, a smile on her face,
When Angie has put all the toys in their place.
The next thing you know, softly laughing with glee,
Sweet Angie returns to the top of the tree. CHORUS

On the top of tippy, tippy top of the tree
Have a very, very merry, merry Christmas, says she.

Merry Christmas

I was lucky enough to find the record on ebay a few years back! My family has based a great part of our Christmas tradition on the song and Angie has sat on the top of our Christmas tree for close to 50 years. As each of us married, my mother made us our own Angie and we carried on the tradition with our own kids as they were born.

My mother would sing this song every Christmas as we put up the tree. I would love to find a copy of it. Did you ever find one?

I have an original 45rpm of this song by Andrews Sisters,from around 1950. It is in very good shape. If anyone is interested in buying it you should post here soon, before I change my mind. I have not been able to find even 1 of these on the internet yet. It is a Decca, black label, # 9-27251. Other side has "I'd like to hitch a ride with Santa Claus".
