Arlington’s a Shopping Wonderland(to the tune of “Winter Wonderland”
lyrics by Jan Whitted, Artbeat)
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
Arlington is a-glistening
The town’s all alight
We’re happy tonight, Arlington’s a shopping wonderland.
Arlington- it’s uplifting
Stay in town for our gifting
We’re feeling just fine
As we shop and we dine,
Arlington’s a shopping wonderland.
We’ve got three great shopping zones to enter:
Try the Heights, then ride back to the East
In the middle we have got the Center.
Arlington is just a shopping feast!
Later on, we’ll discover
Arlington’s like no other
Have we got it made!
We’re glad that we stayed
Arlington’s a shopping wonderland.
Every cloud has got a silver lining,
When the price of gas has got us down.
We can stay in Arlington for dining
And shopping is a hit all over town.
Arlington- ain’t it thrilling?
Though our noses are chilling
When we’ve got the thirst, Shop Arlington First
Arlington’s a shopping wonderland.
Arlington’s a shopping wonderland.
Arlington’s a shopping wonderland.
Jingle Bells
Dashing through the snowIn a one horse open sleighO’er the fields we goLaughing all the wayBells on bob tails ringMaking spirits brightWhat fun it is to laugh and singA sleighing song tonight
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bellsJingle all the wayOh, what fun it is to rideIn a one horse open sleighJingle bells, jingle bellsJingle all the wayOh, what fun it is to rideIn a one horse open sleigh
A day or two agoI thought I’d take a rideAnd soon Miss Fanny BrightWas seated by my sideThe horse was lean and lankMisfortune seemed his lotWe got into a drifted bankAnd then we got up sot
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bellsJingle all the wayOh, what fun it is to rideIn a one horse open sleighJingle bells, jingle bellsJingle all the wayOh, what fun it is to rideIn a one horse open sleigh
