JOLLY OLD SAINT NICHOLAS
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas
G Jolly old Saint D7 Nicholas,
Em Lean your ear this Bm* way!
C Don’t you tell a G single soul
D7 What I’m going to say;
G Christmas Eve is D7 coming soon;
Em Now, you dear old Bm* man,
C Whisper what you’ll G bring to me;
D7 Tell me if you G can.
1. Jolly old Saint 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.
2. When the clock is striking twelve,
When I’m fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black,
With your pack you’ll creep;
All the stockings you will find
Hanging in a row;
Mine will be the shortest one,
You’ll be sure to know.
3. Johnny wants a pair of skates;
Susy wants a dolly;
Nellie wants a story book;
She thinks dolls are folly;
As for me, my little brain
Isn’t very bright;
Choose for me, old Santa Claus,
What you think is right.
