[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:00.53]This is Louis Satchmo Armstrong
[00:04.24]Talking to all the kids from all over the world
[00:09.17]At Christmas time
[00:12.64]'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house
[00:20.30]Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse
[00:26.63]The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
[00:31.86]In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there
[00:37.24]The children were nestled all snug in their beds
[00:43.01]While visions of sugar-plums dance in their heads
[00:50.65]And mamma in her 'kerchief and I in my cap
[00:56.45]Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap
[01:03.48]When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter
[01:09.15]I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter
[01:16.99]Away to the window I flew like a flash
[01:21.90]Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash
[01:27.10]The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
[01:31.60]Gave a lustre of mid-day to objects below
[01:38.04]When what to my wondering eyes should appear
[01:44.15]But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
[01:50.55]With little old driver so lively and quick
[01:54.92]I knew in a moment it must be St Nick
[02:00.71]More rapid than eagles his coursers they came
[02:06.76]And he whistled and shouted and called them by name
[02:13.20]Now Dasher now Dancer now Prancer and Vixen
[02:22.14]On Comet on Cupid on Donder and Blitzen
[02:32.01]To the top of the porch to the top of the wall
[02:37.92]Now dash away dash away dash away all
[02:45.05]As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
[02:52.13]When they meet with an obstacle mount to the sky
[02:59.00]So up to the house-top the coursers they flew
[03:05.09]With the sleigh full of toys and St Nicholas too
[03:11.21]And then in a twinkle I heard on the roof
[03:16.16]The prancing and the pawing of each little hoof
[03:21.98]As I drew my head and was turning around
[03:27.14]Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound
[03:33.02]He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot
[03:38.25]And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot
[03:45.07]A bundle of toys he had flung on his back
[03:49.68]And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack
[03:57.04]His eyes how they twinkled his dimples how merry
[04:04.11]His cheeks were like roses his nose like a cherry
[04:11.06]His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow
[04:16.40]And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow
[04:23.86]The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth
[04:30.62]And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath
[04:37.03]He had a broad face and a little round belly
[04:42.65]That shook when he laughed like a bowl of jelly
[04:49.62]He was chubby and plump a right jolly old elf
[04:57.06]And I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself
[05:02.19]A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
[05:06.81]Soon gave me to know that I had nothing to dread
[05:13.76]He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
[05:20.21]And filled all the stockings then turned with a jerk
[05:26.81]And laying his finger aside of his nose
[05:31.27]And giving a nod up the chimney he rose
[05:37.93]He sprang to his sleigh to his team gave a whistle
[05:45.93]And away they all flew like the down on a thistle
[05:52.97]But I heard him exclaim 'ere he drove out of sight
[05:59.91]Happy Christmas to all and to all a good night
[06:08.47]A very good night
[06:12.35]And that goes for Satchmo too
[06:14.52]Ha-ha-ha-ha
[06:15.78]Thank you
