Don't Wait Till The Night Before Christmas Lyrics - White Christmas - Rosemary Clooney

All year long in the mountains 

Lives an old man, they say. 

He wraps up bundles with ribbons, 

Just to give them away. 

All year long in the mountains, 

He looks down to see 

Kids that are good, and kids that are bad, 

And treats them accordingly. 

If you want toys like other little boys 

In your neighborhood, 

Don't wait 'til the night before Christmas 

To be good. 

And dolls with curls are for the little girls, 

Who do things they should, 

So don't wait 'til the night before Christmas 

To be good. 

You can't fool Mister Santa Claus, 

He knows right from wrong; 

And you can't be right for just one night, 

You gotta be right, right along. 

You'd love to see another Christmas tree 

Where the old one stood. 

So don't wait 'til the night before Christmas 

To be good. 

Santa Claus has a big book 

That helps him to remember, 

He can tell each kid the things they did 

From January to December. 

Jingle bells never jingle 

For the very bad ones. 

Every Christmas Day, the good are gay 

And the bad ones are the sad ones.
