Up On The Housetop Lyrics

[Chorus]
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop yeah, yeah
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop click, click, click

[Verse 1]
Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good ol' Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones' Christmas joys

[Pre-Chorus]
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

[Chorus]
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop yeah, yeah
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop click, click, click

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

[Chorus]
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop yeah, yeah
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop click, click, click

[Verse 3]
Look in the stocking of little Bill
Oh just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
A whistle and a ball and a whip that cracks

[Pre-Chorus]
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

[Chorus]
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop yeah, yeah
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop
[Bridge]
I'm talking 'bout the
Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen
Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen (4x)

[Pre-Chorus]
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

[Chorus]
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop yeah yeah
Up on the housetop
Up on the housetop, click, click, click (ah)
