《T’Was The Night Before Christmas》歌词

[00:00:00] 'Twas The Night Before Christmas - Liberace

[00:00:02] Twas the night before christmas when all through the house

[00:00:06] Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse

[00:00:10] The stockings were hung by the chimney with care

[00:00:13] In hopes that st nicholas soon would be there

[00:00:17] The children were nestled all snug in their beds

[00:00:20] While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads

[00:00:25] And mamma in her kerchief and i in my cap

[00:00:30] Had just settled down for a long winter's nap

[00:00:35] When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter

[00:00:39] I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter

[00:00:43] Away to the window i flew like a flash

[00:00:46] Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash

[00:00:51] The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow

[00:00:55] Gave the lustre of mid day to objects below

[00:00:59] When what to my wondering eyes should appear

[00:01:02] But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer

[00:01:07] With a little old driver so lively and quick

[00:01:11] I knew in a moment it must be st nick

[00:01:14] More rapid than eagles his coursers they came

[00:01:17] And he whistled and shouted and called them by name

[00:01:21] Now dasher now dancer now prancer and vixen

[00:01:27] On comet on cupid on donder and blitzen

[00:01:32] To the top of the porch to the top of the wall

[00:01:36] Now dash away dash away dash away all

[00:01:43] As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly

[00:01:47] When they meet with an obstacle mount to the sky

[00:01:50] So up to the house top the coursers they flew

[00:01:53] With the sleigh full of toys and st nicholas too

[00:02:01] And then in a twinkling i heard on the roof

[00:02:06] The prancing and pawing of each little hoof

[00:02:08] As i drew in my hand and was turning around

[00:02:12] Down the chimney st nicholas came with a bound

[00:02:16] He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot

[00:02:20] And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot

[00:02:25] A bundle of toys he had flung on his back

[00:02:27] And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack

[00:02:33] His eyes how they twinkled his dimples how merry

[00:02:40] His cheeks were like roses his nose like a cherry

[00:02:46] His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow

[00:02:49] And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow

[00:02:53] The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth

[00:02:58] And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath

[00:03:01] He had a broad face and a little round belly

[00:03:06] That shook when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly

[00:03:10] He was chubby and plump a right jolly old elf

[00:03:14] And i laughed when i saw him in spite of myself

[00:03:19] A wink of his eye and a twist of his head

[00:03:22] Soon gave me to know i had nothing to dread

[00:03:27] He spoke not a word but went straight to his work

[00:03:30] And filled all the stockings then turned with a jerk

[00:03:34] And laying his finger aside of his nose

[00:03:37] And giving a nod up the chimney he rose

[00:03:43] He sprang to his sleigh to his team gave a whistle

[00:03:48] And away they all flew like the down of a thistle

[00:03:52] But i heard him exclaim ere he drove out of sight

[00:03:58] Marry Christmas to all and to all a good night
