'Twas the Night Before Christmas - Perry Como[00:00:01]

'Twas the night before christmas [00:00:10]

When all through the house [00:00:12]

Not a creature was stirring [00:00:13]

Not even a mouse [00:00:15]

The stockings all hung[00:00:17]

By the chimney with care [00:00:18]

In hopes that st nicholas[00:00:20]

Soon would be there [00:00:22]

The children were nestled[00:00:24]

All safe in their beds [00:00:25]

While visions of sugarplums[00:00:27]

Danced in their heads [00:00:29]

And mom in her kerchief[00:00:32]

And I in my cap [00:00:34]

Had just settled down[00:00:35]

For a long winters nap [00:00:37]

When out on the lawn[00:00:40]

There arose such a clatter [00:00:41]

I sprang from my bed[00:00:42]

To see what was the matter [00:00:43]

Away to the window[00:00:44]

I flew like a flash [00:00:45]

Tore open the shutters[00:00:47]

And threw up the sash [00:00:48]

The moon on the breast[00:00:50]

Of the new fallen snow [00:00:51]

Gave the lustre of midday[00:00:52]

To object below [00:00:54]

When what to my wandering eyes[00:00:56]

Should appear [00:00:58]

But a miniature sleigh[00:00:59]

And eight tiny reindeer [00:01:01]

With a little ol driver[00:01:05]

So lively and quick [00:01:06]

I knew in a moment[00:01:08]

It must be st nick [00:01:09]

More rapid than eagles[00:01:11]

His courses they came [00:01:12]

As he whistled and shouted[00:01:13]

And called them by name[00:01:15]

Now dasher [00:01:16]

Now dancer [00:01:17]

Now prancer [00:01:18]

Now vixen [00:01:19]

On comet [00:01:19]

On cupid [00:01:20]

On doner[00:01:20]

An blitzen [00:01:21]

To the top of the porch [00:01:22]

To the top of the wall [00:01:24]

Now dash-away dash-away [00:01:25]

Dash-away all [00:01:27]

As dry leaves[00:01:30]

Before the wild hurricane fly [00:01:31]

When they meet with an obstacle[00:01:33]

Mount to the sky [00:01:35]

So up to the housetop[00:01:36]

The courses they flew [00:01:37]

With a sleigh full of toys[00:01:39]

And st nicholas too [00:01:42]

And then in a twinkling[00:01:45]

I heard on the roof [00:01:47]

The prancing and pawing[00:01:48]

Of each little hoof [00:01:50]

As I drew in my head[00:01:51]

And was turning around [00:01:53]

Down the chimney st nicholas[00:01:54]

Came with a bound [00:01:56]

He was dressed all in fur[00:02:00]

From his head to his foot [00:02:02]

And his clothes were all tarnished[00:02:04]

With ashes and soot [00:02:05]

A bundle of toys[00:02:07]

He had flung on his back [00:02:08]

And he looked like a peddler[00:02:10]

Just opening his pack [00:02:11]

His eyes how they twinkled [00:02:13]

His dimples how merry [00:02:15]

His cheeks were like roses [00:02:17]

His nose like a cherry [00:02:19]

His drawl little mouth[00:02:21]

Was drawn up like a bow [00:02:23]

And the beard of his chin[00:02:25]

Was a white as the snow [00:02:26]

The stump of his pipe[00:02:29]

He held tight in his teeth [00:02:30]

And the smoke it encircled his head[00:02:31]

Like a wreath [00:02:34]

He had a broad face[00:02:35]

And a round little belly [00:02:37]

That shook when he laughed[00:02:39]

Like a bowl full of jelly [00:02:40]

He was chubby and plump [00:02:43]

A right jolly old elf [00:02:44]

I laughed when I saw him[00:02:47]

In spite of myself [00:02:48]

A wink of his eye[00:02:50]

And a twist of his head [00:02:51]

Soon gave me to know[00:02:53]

I had nothing to dread [00:02:55]

He spoke not a word[00:02:59]

But went straight to his work [00:03:00]

And filled all the stockings [00:03:01]

Then turned with a jerk [00:03:03]

An laying a finger[00:03:05]

Along side his nose [00:03:06]

An giving a nod [00:03:07]

Up the chimney he rose [00:03:08]

He sprang to his sleigh [00:03:13]

To his team gave a whistle [00:03:15]

An away they all flew[00:03:16]

Like the down of a thistle [00:03:17]

But I heard him exclaim[00:03:19]

As he drove out of sight [00:03:20]

Happy christmas to all [00:03:23]

And to all a goodnight[00:03:25]
