Jolly Old St. Nick
Lyrics
Jolly old St. Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way!
Don't you tell a single soul,
What I'm going to say
Christmas Eve is coming soon,
Now, you dear old man,
Whisper what you'll bring to me
Tell me if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve, when I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black,
With your pack you'll creep.
All the stockings you will find
Hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one,
You'll be sure to know.
Johnny wants a pair of skates, Susie wants a sled
Nellie wants a picture book, yellow, blue and red
Now I think I'll leave to you
What to give the rest
Choose for me dear Santa Claus,
What you think is best.
