《’Twas The Night Before Christmas》歌词

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

[00:00:09] It was the night before Christmas

[00:00:11] When all through the house

[00:00:12] Not a creature was stirring

[00:00:14] Not even a mouse

[00:00:16] The stockings all hung

[00:00:17] By the chimney with care

[00:00:19] In hopes that st nicholas

[00:00:21] Soon would be there

[00:00:23] The children were nestled

[00:00:24] All safe in their beds

[00:00:26] While visions of sugarplums

[00:00:28] Danced in their heads

[00:00:31] 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 winter's nap

[00:00:39] When out on the lawn

[00:00:39] 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

[00:00:46] 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

[00:00:57] But a miniature sleigh

[00:00:59] And eight tiny reindeer

[00:01:04] With a little ol' driver

[00:01:05] So lively and quick

[00:01:06] I knew in a moment

[00:01:07] It must be st nick

[00:01:09] More rapid than eagles

[00:01:10] His courses they came

[00:01:12] As he whistled and shouted

[00:01:13] And called them by name

[00:01:15] And quot now dasher

[00:01:15] Now dancer

[00:01:16] Now prancer

[00:01:16] Now vixen

[00:01:17] On comet

[00:01:18] On cupid

[00:01:18] On doner

[00:01:19] An' blitzen'

[00:01:20] 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

[00:01:28] As dry leaves

[00:01:28] Before the wild hurricane fly

[00:01:31] When they meet with an obstacle

[00:01:33] Mount to the sky

[00:01:34] So up to the housetop

[00:01:35] The courses they flew

[00:01:37] With a sleigh full of toys

[00:01:40] And st nicholas too

[00:01:43] And then in a twinkling

[00:01:44] I heard on the roof

[00:01:46] The prancing and pawing

[00:01:48] Of each little hoof

[00:01:49] As I drew in my head

[00:01:50] And was turning around

[00:01:51] Down the chimney st nicholas

[00:01:53] Came with a bound

[00:01:58] He was dressed all in fur

[00:01:59] From his head to his foot

[00:02:01] And his clothes were all tarnished

[00:02:03] With ashes and soot

[00:02:04] A bundle of toys

[00:02:05] He had flung on his back

[00:02:07] And he looked like a peddler

[00:02:08] Just opening his pack

[00:02:10] His eyes how they twinkled

[00:02:12] His dimples how merry

[00:02:14] His cheeks were like roses

[00:02:17] His nose like a cherry

[00:02:19] His drawl little mouth

[00:02:20] Was drawn up like a bow

[00:02:22] And the beard of his chin

[00:02:24] Was a white as the snow

[00:02:26] The stump of his pipe

[00:02:27] He held tight in his teeth

[00:02:29] And the smoke it encircled his head

[00:02:31] Like a wreath

[00:02:33] He had a broad face

[00:02:34] And a round little belly

[00:02:36] That shook when he laughed

[00:02:37] Like a bowl full of jelly

[00:02:40] He was chubby and plump

[00:02:41] A right jolly old elf

[00:02:44] I laughed when I saw him

[00:02:45] In spite of myself

[00:02:47] A wink of his eye

[00:02:48] And a twist of his head

[00:02:50] Soon gave me to know

[00:02:52] I had nothing to dread

[00:02:56] He spoke not a word

[00:02:56] But went straight to his work

[00:02:58] And filled all the stockings

[00:02:59] Then turned with a jerk

[00:03:02] An' laying a finger

[00:03:03] Along side his nose

[00:03:04] An' giving a nod

[00:03:05] Up the chimney he rose

[00:03:10] He sprang to his sleigh

[00:03:11] To his team gave a whistle

[00:03:13] An' away they all flew

[00:03:14] Like the down of a thistle

[00:03:16] But I heard him exclaim

[00:03:17] As he drove out of sight

[00:03:20] Happy Christmas to all

[00:03:22] And to all a goodnight

[00:03:25] Hm
