Jolly Old St. Nicholas

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.
