Story Behind The Song
My memories as a young girl of having my grandmother decorating the Christmas tree with Candy Canes, Popcorn balls and Gingerbread men was very special. When visitors would come to her house she would pack up a goodies bag of each and always said "Everyone needs to go home with a little Christmas". All of her presents were wrapped in beautiful red paper and big ribbons. One year my grandparents actually had someone break into their house unknowingly and steal some of the gifts thus "The Holiday Caper" in the song.
She always said "Christmas was the Holiday Time of Mine"
Enjoy the song!

Lyrics
Holidays are shining upon us
Waiting for the first winter snowfall
Hope it's not a blustery blizzard
Or Santa won't come at all
Rudolph's red nose will flicker
After all the reindeer have stopped
Up on the Rooftop
Up on the Rooftop
Chorus
Oh ho ho ho
Candy Cane time and those
Holiday lines
Makes Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Come sing with me a melody by the Yule log
Cause after Christmas
I'll be in a deep deep fog
In desperate need of some egg egg nog
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday the holiday time of mine
Verse 2
The Popcorn balls are hanging from the tree
There's plenty of goodies for you and me
Our Christmas will be so fine
Sleigh riding down the alpine
Santa elves dressed in their tights
Having a great big snowball fight
This magical moment
This magical moment
Chorus
Oh ho ho ho
Candy Cane time and those
Holiday lines
Makes Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Come sing with me a melody by the Yule log
Cause after Christmas
I'll be in a deep deep fog
In desperate need of some egg egg nog
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday the holiday time of mine
Bridge
The joy of Christmas we hold dear to our hearts
The smell of pine invades our cozy house of divine
Bringing in magic time after time
Magic time after time
Everyone's beautiful smiles are what we need
To be around the Christmas tree
Chorus
Oh ho ho ho
Candy Cane time and those
Holiday lines
Makes Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Come sing with me a melody by the Yule log
Cause after Christmas
I'll be in a deep deep fog
In desperate need of some egg egg nog
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday the holiday time of mine
Verse 3
Candy canes hanging from the tree
Garland strung all around to see
Tasty gingerbread for you and me
Presents wrapped in fancy red paper
Down under the tree
Hope we don't get a holiday caper
This holiday season
This holiday season
Chorus
Oh ho ho ho
Candy Cane time and those
Holiday lines
Makes Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Come sing with me a melody by the Yule log
Cause after Christmas
I'll be in a deep deep fog
In desperate need of some egg egg nog
Christmas the holiday time of mine
Christmas the holiday the holiday time of mine mine mine mine
Christmas
