Up on the Housetop

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 Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Oh, oh, oh, who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? First comes the stocking of little Nell Oh, dear Santa fill it well Give her a dolly that laughs and cries One that can open and shut its eyes Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Oh, oh, oh, who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Next comes the stocking of little Will Oh, just see what a glorious fill Here is a hammer and lots of tacks Whistle, and ball, and a set of jacks Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Oh, oh, oh, who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead Anyone particular, everyone fed I'm in the doorstop holding it down Waiting for a miracle, waiting for a crowd One of the scenario, thinking up a cause Anyone particular, any old cause Hands on the counter, feet on the floor Moving to the kitchen and you get your passport Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead Down through the chimney is what the man said 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 Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Oh, oh, oh, who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go? Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead Down through the chimney is what the man said
