Doesn anyone know if the sheet music or any kind of recorded accompaniment exists to a song called "The Best Gift"? It's a song recorded by Barbra Streisand in her 1967 "A Christmas Album," (lyrics are below) and one of my students is expecting and very much wants to sing this song for Christmas.:-) Any help is much appreciated.
THE BEST GIFT
The best gift That I ever got Didn't really weigh a lot It didn't have a ribbon 'round And it sometimes made the terrible sound The best of all it seems to me
It wasn't neath the Christmas tree And yet, I guess I'd have to say That it made all the other presents twice as gay The best gift that I've ever known I'd always wanted most to own Yet in my dreams of sugar and spice I never thought it could be so nice
The best gift that I ever get Was sometimes dry and sometimes wet Was usually pink but oftentimes red As it lay so innocently in its bed
The best gift of the year to me The one I hold most dear to me A gift that simply drove me wild Was a tiny new born child...
