STOCKING SONG ON CHRISTMAS EVE.

Оглавление

Table of Contents

Welcome, Christmas! heel and toe,

Here we wait thee in a row.

Come, good Santa Claus, we beg—

Fill us tightly, foot and leg.


Fill us quickly ere you go—

Fill us till we overflow.

That's the way! and leave us more

Heaped in piles upon the floor.


Little feet that ran all day

Twitch in dreams of merry play;

Little feet that jumped at will

Lie all pink, and warm, and still.


See us, how we lightly swing;

Hear us, how we try to sing.

Welcome, Christmas! heel and toe,

Come and fill us ere you go.


Here we hang till some one nimbly

Jumps with treasure down the chimney.

Bless us! how he'll tickle us!

Funny old St. Nicholas!
