T'was the night before Christmas
Waiting for Saint Nicholas
On the night before Christmas
Christmas eve
Christmas eve!
T'was the night before Christmas and all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
The stocking were hung by the window with care
In the hope that Saint Nicholas soon would be there
And the children were nestled all snug in their beds
While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads
T'was the night before Christmas
Waiting for Saint Nicholas
On the night before Christmas
Christmas eve
Christmas eve
Away to the windows I flew like a flash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash
Then what to my wondering eyes should appear
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
Now Dasher, now Dancer, now Prancer and Vixen
On Coment, on Cupid, on Donner and Blitzen
Ho, ho, ho, ho!
T'was the night before Christmas
Waiting for Saint Nicholas
On the night before Christmas
Christmas eve
Christmas eve
As I drew in my head and was turning around
Down the chimney Saint Nicholas came with a bound
He had a broad face and a little round belly
That shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
And filled all the stocking then turned with a jerk
And I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight
"Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!"
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
T'was the night before Christmas
Waiting for Saint Nicholas
On the night before Christmas
Christmas eve
T'was the night before Christmas
Waiting for Saint Nicholas
On the night before Christmas
Christmas eve
Christmas eve!

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
