Christmas Carols Jolly Old Saint Nicholas Lyrics

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas Lyrics

Jolly old Saint 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; 

 Susy wants a dolly; 

 Nellie wants a story book; 

 She thinks dolls are folly; 

 As for me, my little brain 

 Isn't very bright; 

 Choose for me, old Santa Claus, 

 What you think is right
