Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
Swingin' to the rhythm, tapping their claws
Down through the chimney, Santa flies
With a sack full of gifts and twinkling eyes
Oh, oh, Santa's on the go
Shimmy down smooth in the moonlit glow
Jazz up the rooftops, baby, let's swing
Every little jingle's got that zing
Ho, ho, ho, bring the bebop cheer
Santa's jammin' all the way here!
First comes the stocking for little Nell
Santa fills it up with a jive he tells
A doll that swings to a jazzy beat
And candy canes that melt so sweet
Oh, oh, stockings in a row
Catch the rhythm as the good times flow
While the stars shine bright and the sleighbells ring
The night is alive with the joy we bring
Every rooftop's glowing, every heart's aglow
Santa's bringing more than gifts, he's stealing the show
Jazz up the rooftops, baby, let's swing
Every little jingle's got that zing
Ho, ho, ho, bring the bebop cheer
Santa's jammin' all the way here!
Up on the housetop, a jazzy refrain...
Santa's bringing magic with every note he plays
Ho, ho, ho jazz it slow
