《’twas the Night Before Christmas》歌词

[00:00:00] 'Twas The Night Before Christmas (Remastered) - Art Carney

[00:00:02] Written by：Moore

[00:00:04] Twas the night

[00:00:05] Before Christmas

[00:00:06] When all through the house

[00:00:07] Not a creature was stirring

[00:00:08] Not even a mouse

[00:00:09] The stockings all hung

[00:00:11] By the chimney with care

[00:00:12] In hopes

[00:00:12] That St Nicholas

[00:00:13] Soon would be there

[00:00:14] The children were nestled

[00:00:15] All safe in their beds

[00:00:17] While visions of sugarplums

[00:00:18] Danced in their heads

[00:00:19] Then mom in her kerchief

[00:00:20] And I in my cap

[00:00:21] Had just settled down

[00:00:22] For a long winters nap

[00:00:24] When out on the lawn

[00:00:25] There arose such a clatter

[00:00:26] I sprang from my bed

[00:00:27] To see what was the matter

[00:00:29] Away to the window

[00:00:30] I flew like a flash

[00:00:31] Tore open the shutters

[00:00:32] Threw up the sash

[00:00:33] When what

[00:00:34] To my wandering eyes

[00:00:35] Should appear

[00:00:35] But a miniature sleigh

[00:00:37] And eight tiny reindeer

[00:00:38] With a little ol driver

[00:00:39] So lively and quick

[00:00:40] I knew in a moment

[00:00:41] It must be St nick

[00:00:43] More rapid than eagles

[00:00:44] His courses they came

[00:00:45] As he whistled

[00:00:45] And shouted

[00:00:46] And called

[00:00:46] Them by name

[00:00:47] Now dasher

[00:00:47] Now dancer

[00:00:48] Now prancer

[00:00:49] Now vixen

[00:00:49] On comet

[00:00:50] On cupid

[00:00:50] On doner

[00:00:51] An blitzen

[00:00:52] To the top

[00:00:52] Of the porch

[00:00:53] To the top

[00:00:54] Of the wall

[00:00:54] Now dash away

[00:00:55] Dash away

[00:00:55] Dash away all

[00:00:57] So up

[00:00:57] To the housetop

[00:00:58] The courses

[00:00:58] They flew

[00:00:59] With a sleigh

[00:01:00] Full of toys

[00:01:00] And St Nicholas too

[00:01:01] And then

[00:01:02] In a twinkling

[00:01:02] I heard on the roof

[00:01:04] The prancing

[00:01:04] And pawing

[00:01:05] Of each little hoof

[00:01:06] As I drew in my head

[00:01:07] And was turning around

[00:01:08] Down the chimney

[00:01:09] St Nicholas

[00:01:10] Came with a bound

[00:01:11] He was dressed

[00:01:11] All in fur

[00:01:12] From his head

[00:01:12] To his foot

[00:01:13] And his clothes

[00:01:14] Were all tarnished

[00:01:14] With ashes and soot

[00:01:16] A bundle of toys

[00:01:16] He had flung

[00:01:17] On his back

[00:01:18] And he looked

[00:01:18] Like a peddler

[00:01:19] Just opening

[00:01:19] His pack

[00:01:20] His eyes

[00:01:21] How they twinkle

[00:01:21] His dimples how merry

[00:01:23] His cheeks

[00:01:23] Were like roses

[00:01:24] His nose like a cherry

[00:01:25] His drawl little mouth

[00:01:26] Was drawn up like a bow

[00:01:27] And the beard of his chin

[00:01:28] Was a white as the snow

[00:01:30] The stump of his pipe

[00:01:31] He held tight

[00:01:31] In his teeth

[00:01:32] And the smoke it

[00:01:33] Encircled his head

[00:01:33] Like a wreath

[00:01:34] He had a broad face

[00:01:36] And a round little belly

[00:01:37] That shook when he laughed

[00:01:38] Like a bowl full of jelly

[00:01:39] He was chubby and plump

[00:01:40] A right jolly old elf

[00:01:41] I laughed when I saw him

[00:01:42] In spite of myself

[00:01:44] He spoke not a word

[00:01:45] But went straight

[00:01:45] To his work

[00:01:46] And filled

[00:01:46] All the stockings

[00:01:47] Then turned

[00:01:48] With a jerk

[00:01:50] He rose

[00:01:51] An laying a finger

[00:01:52] Along side his nose

[00:01:53] An giving a nod

[00:01:54] Up the chimney

[00:01:55] He rose

[00:01:56] He sprang

[00:01:56] To his sleigh

[00:01:57] To his team

[00:01:57] Gave a whistle

[00:01:58] An away

[00:01:58] They all flew

[00:01:59] Like the down

[00:02:00] Of a thistle

[00:02:00] But I heard him exclaim

[00:02:01] As he drove out of sight

[00:02:04] Happy christmas to all

[00:02:06] And to all a goodnight
