[Chorus] Oh! how I wish I could sleep, until my Daddy comes home;Oh! mamma why must we always be, all alone?I miss him more evry day,How can you ask me to play;You're always sighing and crying, since he went away;Last night I heard Daddy call,But I was dreaming thats all;He kissed me, and he said,Go to bed, my own;"Oh! mamma, that's when I thought, God made the night time too short;Oh! how I wish I could sleep. Until my Daddy comes home."

Christmas songs might not get played all year round, but they are what the industry refers to as "evergreen". Unlike a typical pop song that has a life span of maybe 3-4 months before being shoved aside for something newer and shinier, Christmas songs keep coming back every year. Furthermore, Christmas songs are arguably the most covered type of song in the world. Every year, hundreds of popular artists from every musical genre around the world, line up to pay top dollar for the rights to cover a popular Christmas song. So, how much money could you be looking at if you successfully write a classic Christmas song? Below is a list of the most profitable Christmas songs:
You probably know this song by its opening line "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire". Ironically, Torme is Jewish and wrote the music and the song in under 45 minutes during a blistering hot Chicago summer. He was just 19 years old. The song has since been covered by hundreds of huge artists including Michael Buble, Tony Bennett, Garth Brooks, Bob Dylan, Frank Sinatra, NSYNC and many more. Despite having written more than 250 songs during his career, "The Christmas Song" was by far Mel's biggest financial success. He often referred to it as "my annuity".
The second of three Christmas songs on this list. The day after the song debuted, over 100,000 people ordered copies of the sheet music. 400,000 copies had sold within a few months. The song has been covered by a wide range of artists including Justin Bieber, Bruce Springsteen and Mariah Carey.
No song captures the heart of the holidays like "White Christmas". This is ironic when you consider the fact that it was written by a Jewish immigrant from Russia. Bing Crosby's version is by far the most famous but countless other artists have recorded the song. Crosby's version is one of the bestselling pieces of music in history, with over 100 million copies sold worldwide to date. The Guinness Book of World Records recently named "White Christmas" the bestselling single of all time.
Paper calendars were first popular in Germany in the early 1900s, although people made their own ones from the 1850s. There's a debate about exactly where and when the first mass produced calendar was printed but it was in the first decade of the 1900s. The most famous and popular early maker of printed Advent calendars was a German printer called Gerhard Lang. His first calendars consisted of two sheets, a 'back' piece of card with the numbers 1 to 24 printed on it and a separate sheet of pictures which you could cut out and stick onto the numbers each day. The first calendars with 'doors' were made in Germany in the 1920s. During World War II, the production of Advent calendars stopped due to a shortage of cardboard.

Many thanks for your kind attention to my numerous wants; all the articles came safely to hand on Tues. of this week, in ample season for all necessities. I intended to have written you a line immediately, acknowledging their receipt, but until this morning it has been totally impossible and now I write in the greatest haste to reach today's mail. Tuesday was a day of meetings - an address from Henry Ward Beecher in the forenoon, Prof. Shedd in the afternoon, and Dr. Bond in the evening - and I sat them through. It reminded me strongly of Anniversary week, and I feel as if I must run down to Crescent Place to dinner! - Thursday was Commencement Day, and we spent it in the church; I wish I had a schedule of the exercises to send you, but I devoured mine, in an extremity of fatigue and hunger, during the last paragraphs of the Valedictory. -- Thursday evening Prof. Warner had a large party, but I was too tired and cross to go, so Annie & Helen represented the family and had a delightful time. Yesterday we visited Mount Holyoke - our party numbering eight, and a more delightful visit never was paid to the old mountain shrine, I am sure. The day was just such a day as might have been purposely fashioned for just such a proper excursion - clear, cool, bright and beautiful. The prospect from the mountain top, could never have been more enchanting, and very seldom as much so, for there was not a breath of mist to dim it anywhere. The hills all around north, east and west, stood out from the sky in boldest relief and all the bits of green in the vallies below were as bright and as clearly to be tasted as if they were in an engraving held in the hand, while the Connecticut winding around like a bright thread in a piece of fairy embroidery, presented nothing to the eye but a succession of sparkling flashes in the sunlight. We roamed about the mountain long hours without thinking more than moments, and did not reach the Hotel at the foot of it, till after three; as we left home at nine you can imagine our appetites, and how unreasonable we all grew, while we were waiting to have chickens (fattened I had almost said) killed and cooked for dinner. - But it was all the better appreciated when it did come, because we had waited so long, and there was no lack of justice to the substance, I assure you. You would have laughed I know could you have looked in on our party after dinner, as we sat in the little low old fashioned rooms, and played backgammon and chatted; there were four ladies and four gentlemen, and what is very unusual in such party, we were all paired off, just right, to the most satisfaction of every body concerned. We made home just at sunset and at one of the most beautiful sunsets which sun and cloud ever made - and when we went to bed, we didn't wake up till morning! as you may well believe. - Today I feel excessively uninteresting, as you perhaps find out from the general tone of my letter - tired, lame, and slightly headsick-ish. Tomorrow is Sunday and we shall then have a respite from calls, &c. else I should despair indeed.
However, I did not think much about it one way or the other till afterwards. - And after you made that remark I most distinctly & unqualifiedly wished you would go as I said several times. But Lul I don't believe you have any idea what a hard thing that was to hear. - If anybody can give proof of anything, I should think you & Mary had both reason to believe that I am no longer jealous of your mutual love. I could no more be "jealous" of May Sprague now, than I could be jealous of Julia Ball or Julia Walker; it is entirely out of the questions. You ought to understand this; - I dont see how you can help understanding it. Moreover, I should have sooner perished than said a word if I had been jealous of your going. - And it was not so much the shortness of your remark, that wounded me, as the suspicion it revealed. I felt so humiliated by the idea that you had been to say the most of it, only half loving me - with all the while a feeling in your heart that I was hypocritical - and was still cherishing in secret, those feelings of jealousy and distrust, which I had professed to have contritely lost. - I do wish very much that before y/o/u/ we go, you would go up some evening and spend the evening and night with Mary; that is, if you would like to - and that reminds me of another thing - I did not (sincerely) last night, suppose that you cared so much to go. - I really thought at first that you were a little hesitating what to do about accepting the invitation. - Oh, I am so sorry it has happened - not that I think any unkindly memory of your remark now; I should be indeed unforgiving if I could do so after your note - and not that I doubt your loving me; and not that it will hinder my loving you; but because I cannot help feeling that your confidence in my sincerity must be woefully weak; if there is any thing which I do wish to have recognized by friend & foe, it is that I am not insincere; and I can not but see, that your thought could o/n/l/y/ have sprung only from at least, a suspicion that I had been. - But perhaps you will know me better yet - Luly; at any rate, love me as well as you can; - I shall always love you, and let us at all events ever be frank.
Oh Lou - My dish is up (or rather down - bottom side up!) at the Benedicts. It never was any sort of use for me to try to keep up false appearances. - That afternoon when you went out of the room - Bobbie says to Sue "Cousin Helen isn't sick - she isn't lying down either - she's up in her room writing a letter to somebody and May Sprague's there with her"! Sue told Mary - and poor Mary tried her best to explain it all away - but I fear the sun still goes down on Sue's indignation. - I should be vexed if I was in her place - as of course she could not understand the contradiction. But I'm sure I was asserted to begin with, by the best of motives - a wish to have her see you in peace & comfort. 2ff7e9595c
