Jolly Old St. Nicholas Lyrics

(Tom T. Hall)

Jolly old St. 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;Christmas Song - Jolly Old St. Nicholas - http://motolyrics.com/christmas-song/jolly-old-st-nicholas-lyrics.html

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 doll

Jenny wants a story book; Dolls wont do at all

As for me, my dear old man on this special night

Choose for me, old Santa Claus. What you think is right.
