My Favorite Christmas Tune

This was my favorite Christmas tune as a child.

It was my mother's record from childhood - a 78 rpm record no less.

The flip side was a quaint song titled "Are My Ears On Straight?". My second favorite song.

What was/is your favorite?

It's not a Christmas tune, but the "ears on straight" reminded me of an album we had as kids, Micky Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck. Lyrics:

Goofy: Turkey. Lobster. Sweet Potater Pie. Pancakes piled up 'til they reach the sky.

Donald: Quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, quack-quack, QUAAAAACK!!

Goofy: Oooooooooh! I wanna eat'n'eat'n'eat'n'eat and eat until I die.

It's that last line that runs through my head quite often, even 40 years later.

did i thank you personally for the box? no? i thought not.

well, thank you ever so. i had to hide the circus peanuts so my husband won't eat them.

i love this song.

i don't really have a particular christmas song that is my favorite. too many years of working retail at christmas time and hearing christmas songs all day.

but i'm partial to "Tennessee Christmas"

Merry Christmas my beautiful blog friend!!!
