UP ON THE HOUSETOP 
Starting note: A

Up on the housetop, reindeer paws [D]

Out jumps good ol' Santa Claus [G D A]

Down through the chimney with lots of toys [D]

All for the little ones, Christmas joys [G D A7 D]


Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go? [G D]

Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go? [A7 D]

Up on the housetop, click, click, click. [D G]

Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick [D A7 D]


First comes the stocking of little 

Nell, O dear Santa, fill it well; 

Give her a dolly that laughs and cries, 

One that will open and shut her eyes.


Next comes the stocking of little Bill, 

Oh just see what a glorious fill. 

Here is a hammer and lots of tacks, 

Also a ball and a whip that cracks.
