WE ARE SANTA'S ELVES
(written by Johnny Marks)
Burl Ives 


Ho ho ho. 
Ho ho ho. 
We are Santa's elves. 

We are Santa's elves, 
Filling Santa's shelves With a toy 
For each girl and boy. 

Oh, we are Santa's elves. 
We work hard all day, 
But our work is play. 
Dolls we try out, 
See if they cry out. 

We are Santa's elves. 
We've a special job each year. 
We don't like to brag. 
Christmas Eve we always 
Fill Santa's bag. 

Santa knows who's good. 
Do the things you should. 
And we bet you, 
He won't forget you. 

We are Santa's elves. 
Ho ho ho. Ho ho ho. 
We are Santa's elves. 
Ho Ho!
