Up on the housetop
Reindeer pause
Out jumps
Good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney
With lots of toys
All for the little ones
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 old Saint Nick
First comes
The stocking
Of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa
Fill it well
Give her a dolly
That laughs and cries
One that will open
And shut her 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 old Saint Nick
Next comes
The stocking
Of little Will
Oh, just see
What a glorious fill
Here is a hammer
And lots of tacks
Also a 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 old Saint Nick
