Up on the housetop reindeer pause,
Out jumps good old Santa Claus.
Down through the chimney
With lots of toys,
All for the little one's Christmas joys.
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop
Click, click click,
Down through the chimney
With good Saint Nick.
First comes the stocking of little Nell;
Oh, dear Santa, fill it well;
Give her a dolly that laughs and crys,
One that can open and shut its eyes.
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop
Click, click click,
Down through the chimney
With good Saint Nick.
Look in the stocking of little Will;
Oh, just see what a glorious fill!
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks,
Whistle and ball and a whip that cracks.
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go
Ho, ho, ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop
Click, click click,
Down through the chimney
With good Saint Nick.
