Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, with faithful leaves unchanging
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, with faithful leaves unchanging
Not only green, in summer's heat, but also winter's snow and sleet
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, with faithful leaves unchanging

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, of all the trees most lovely
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, of all the trees most lovely
Each year you bring to me delight, gleaming in the Christmas night
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, of all the trees most lovely

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, you're leaves will teach me also
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, you're leaves will teach me also
That hope and love and faithfulness are precious things I can possess
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, you're leaves will teach me also

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, how lovely are your branches
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, how lovely are your branches
In summer sun or winter snow, a coat of green you always show
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, how lovely are your branches
How lovely are your branches
How lovely are your branches

Billy Idol

Billy Idol is an English rock musician, songwriter and actor. Born in Stanmore, Middlesex, Idol first achieved fame in the punk rock era as a member of the band Generation X. Unlike other British punk rock artists of his era, Idol was inspired by The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.

Idol then embarked on a successful solo career, and was a member of the MTV-driven “Second British Invasion” of the United States. A series of music videos for songs such as “Dancing With Myself”, “White Wedding”, “Rebel Yell” and “Eyes Without a Face” made him one of the first MTV stars. Idol continues to tour with guitarist Steve Stevens.

Idol’s 1987 release, “Mony Mony” reached #1 on the US top 40 charts; his songs to chart in the top 10 include: White Wedding, Eyes Without a Face, To Be a Lover and Cradle of Love.
