Hi, ADH!
#2 is an easy one: "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" by Elmo and Patsy.
#4, I think, is "Yankee Doodle Dandy" (or something like that).

#4 - you're close enough... actually Yankee Doodle Dandy is a different song but it's easy to confuse them.
Yankee Doodle Dandy:
Yankee doodle went to town, riding on a pony, stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni! Yankee Doodle keep it up, yankee doodle dandy, mind the music and the step and with the girls be-handy!
I'm A Yankee Doodle Boy:
I'm a yankee doodle dandy, a yankee doodle do or die.. a real-live nephew my uncle sam, born on the 4th of July, I've got a yankee doodle sweetheart, she's my yankee doodle joy. Yankee doodle went to london just to ride the ponies, I am a yankee doodle boy! :)
I only remember them because we sang them all the time in elementary school.

Well I guess I was close enough. I just remember Derrick Boyd singing it in episode #128 of "Full House", when Michelle's class did a patriotic play directed by Jesse and Joey.
