WHISTLE AND A WHISKER AWAY
(Bill Hayes - Lee Hayes)

Lynn Anderson - 1971



It's starting to snow and you oughta know by the presents on his sleigh
It's a hint that Santa Claus is just a whistle and a whisker away
So when everyone's good in your neighborhood, in school or out at play
It's a hint that Santa Claus is just a whistle and a whisker away

So you better listen to your mom and your daddy too
Santa comes but once a year, make sure he comes to you
When silver bells chime you know it's the time for that happy day
When sleigh bells jingle ole Kris Kringle will be a whistlin' and a whisker away

(Instrumental Break)

When sleigh bells jingle ole Kris Kringle will be whistlin' and a whisker away
A whistle and a whisker away
