Benjamin Hanby wrote this famous Christmas song in 1864. It’s excited children every Christmas Eve since then!
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 good 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
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!
