Up On The House Top

Santa Clause comes tonight

No more days to count, but the even longer wait begins

The suspense of having to wait from bedtime till morning

Yes, kids all over the world say their prayers and go to sleep

Knowing that when they wake up, the little fat man with a long white beard

Will have stopped by their houses and left the answer to a wish

From the most wonderful, magical sack there ever was

(Ho-ho-ho, ho-ho-ho)

(Up on the house top, ho-ho-ho)

Up on the house top reindeer pause

Out jumps good ol' Santa Clause

Down through the chimney with lots of toys

All for the little ones, Christmas joys

(Ho-ho-ho) Oh, 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

Ol' dear Santa fill it well

Give her a dolly that laughs and cries

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 house top, click, click, click

Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

Look in the stocking of little Bill

Oh, just see what a glorious fill

Here is a hammer and lots of tacks

A whistle and a ball and a whip that cracks

(Ho-ho-ho) Who wouldn't go?

(Ho-ho-ho) Who wouldn't go?

Up on the house top, click, click, click

Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

Ho-ho-ho, who wouldn't go?

Ho-ho-ho, who wouldn't go?

Up on the house top, click, click, click

Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick
