The Christmas Riddle - Peggy Lee[00:00:00]

Children may I tell a riddle[00:00:10]

Of someone who's dear to you[00:00:14]

Maybe you will guess the answer[00:00:17]

Long before I'm through[00:00:21]

(Riddle a riddle oh tell us a riddle)[00:00:26]

(Tell us a riddle please do)[00:00:30]

Well long ago there lived a bishop[00:00:34]

Who was such a kindly man[00:00:39]

All his life was spent in giving[00:00:43]

That was how it all began[00:00:46]

And they say he rode a white horse[00:00:50]

As he went from door to door[00:00:54]

Giving presents sweets and good things[00:00:58]

Need I tell you any more[00:01:02]

(Riddle a riddle it still is a riddle)[00:01:07]

(Tell us oh please tell us more)[00:01:11]

Next the legend says the children[00:01:16]

Would leave hay in a wooden shoe[00:01:20]

For the white horse he was riding[00:01:23]

Now you have another clue[00:01:27]

(You gave us a clue you gave us a clue)[00:01:32]

(About hay in a wooden shoe)[00:01:36]

He has many another name[00:01:42]

In many another far off land[00:01:45]

But no matter what the language[00:01:49]

Every child will understand[00:01:53]

Well now when you hang your stocking[00:01:59]

He was why that all began[00:02:03]

All the World has kept the custom[00:02:07]

Of this kind and saintly man[00:02:12]

(We've got it we've got it we just guessed the riddle)[00:02:17]

(We know how it all began)[00:02:22]

Yes you know 'twas Saint Nicholas[00:02:27]

For giving gifts he was the cause[00:02:31]

Some have named him dear Kris Kringle[00:02:35]

Others call him Santa Claus[00:02:40]

And much like the sweet Dutch children[00:02:44]

Would leave hay in a wooden shoe[00:02:48]

Others leave some for the reindeer[00:02:53]

And give presents too[00:02:58]

(Riddle the riddle we guessed the riddle)[00:03:02]

(The riddle of dear old Saint Nick)[00:03:06]

The riddle of old Saint Nick[00:03:11]
