Try this one then.

The Chambers Brothers with one of the best psychedelic songs of the 60's, Time Has Come Today, off of their '67 Time Has Come Today album.

Listen closely during the jam portion of the song particularly at the 5:30 mark until 6:12 and you will distinctly hear The Little Drummer Boy riff.

So, just as with the movie Die Hard, will the question be now annually debated as to whether Time Has Come Today was a Christmas song or not.

Perhaps the closest Frank Zappa came to a Christmas song, Uncle Bernie's Farm from '67.

The Pretenders with Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas off of the '87 A Very Special Christmas compilation LP.
