Was the Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas
waiting for saint nicholas on the night
before christmas
christmas eve (christmas eve)

was the night before christmas and all through the house
not a creature was stirring not even a mouse
the stockings were hung by the window with care
in the hope that saint nicholas soon would be there

and the children were nestled all snug in their bed
while visions of sugarplum danced in their heads
twas the night before christmas
waiting for saint nicholas on the night

before christmas
christmas eve (christmas eve)
away to the windows i flew like a flash
tore open the shutters and threw up the stash

then what to my wondering eyes should appear
a miniture sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
now dasher
now dancer

now prancer
and vixen
on comet
on cupid

on donner
and blitzen
HO HO HO
twas the night before christmas

waiting for saint nicholas on the night
before christmas
christmas eve (christmas eve)
as i threw in my hand and was turning around

down the chimney saint nicholas came with a bow
he had a red face and a little round belly
that swhen he laughed like a bowl full of jelly
he spoke not a word

but went straight to his work
he filled all the stockings then turned with a ____
and i heard him exclaim as her drove out of sight
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT
HO HO HO HO HO
twas the night before christmas
waiting for saint nicholas on the night
before christmas
christmas eve
twas the night before christmas
waiting for saint nicholas on the night
before christmas
christmas eve
christmas eve
