Up on the housetop, a reindeer pause
Out jumps good ol' 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 ol' Saint Nick
Come on, Simon, you take the second verse
Delighted!
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 good Saint Nick
Theodore, you sing the third verse
Who me? Okay!
Next comes the stocking of little Will
Just see what a glorious fill
Here is a ball and a whip that cracks
Also a hammer and lots of tacks
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 ol' Saint Nick
What do you know!
It's ol' Saint Nick
