OLE KRIS KRINGLE
(Roy Botkin)

Kitty Wells - 1962



(Ho-Ho-Ho, Ho-Ho-Ho)
(Doo-doodle-ooo-doodle-ooo)

Ole Kris Kringle comes jing-jing-jinglin'
Jing-jing-jinglin' along
Well Christmas time is coming around
And I know it won't be long
For I saw him uptown last night
And he was checkin' his list
He was walkin' along, hummin' a song
And I think he was doin' the twist

There's a little old man that lives up there
In the land of the North Pole
He comes around on Christmas time
With a great big "HO-HO-HO"
He's got a sleigh and eight reindeer
With bells that jangle-jingle
Some people call him Santa Claus
And others Ole Kris Kringle

(Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho)

Ole Kris Kringle comes jing-jing-jinglin'
Jing-jing-jinglin' along
Well Christmas time is coming around
And I know it won't be long
For I saw him uptown last night
And he was checkin' his list
He was walkin' along, hummin' a song
And I think he was doin' the twist

He's got his reindeer all lined up
And they're just waitin' the word
There's one little fella who goes up front
Who's the leader of the herd
I've been told why he goes up front
He's showing them where to go
I've heard it said why he's ahead
He's got a little red nose

(Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho)

He was walkin' along, hummin' a song
And I think he was doin' the twist
