Up On The Housetop Lyrics


Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Oh! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't, who wouldn't go?
First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut its eyes
Oh! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't, who wouldn't go?
Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Whistle and ball and a set of jacks

Oh! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't, who wouldn't go?
Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go?
Oh, oh, oh!
Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead
Anyone particular, everyone a-fed
I'm in the duster holding it down
Waiting for a miracle, waiting for a crowd
(Oh! Who wouldn't go?)
One of the scenario, thinking up a cause
Anyone particular, any old cause
Hands on the counter, feet on the floor
Moving to the kitchen and you get your passport
Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead
Down into the chimney, is what the men said
(Oh! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?)
Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead
Down into the chimney, is what the men said
(Oh! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?)
Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho, ho ! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead
Down into the chimney, is what the men said
(Oh! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?)
Up on the housetop, spirit of the dead
Down into the chimney, is what the men said
(Oh! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?)
Oh, oh, oh! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't go?
Oh, oh, oh! Who wouldn't go? Who wouldn't, who wouldn't go?

Alvin and the Chipmunks is a five-time Grammy Award-winning animated music group, created by Ross Bagdasarian, Sr. in 1958. The group consists of three singing chipmunks: Alvin , the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group, Simon , the tall bespectacled intellectual, and Theodore , the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is "managed" by their human "father" and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).

branched out into music, but that is the opposite of how they began. After first being brought to life in Bagdasarian's 1950s novelty recordings under the name David Seville and the Chipmunks, the characters were an unprecedented success, and the singing Chipmunks and their manager were given life in several animated cartoon series and motion pictures.

The voices of the group were all performed by Bagdasarian, who sped up the playback to create the higher pitched, squeaky voices. This process was not entirely new; Bagdasarian had also used it for a previous novelty song project, "The Witch Doctor", but it was so unusual and well executed it earned the "trio" two Grammy Awards for engineering. Although the characters were fictional, they did release a long line of "real" albums and singles, with "The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)" becoming a number-one hit single in the United States. After his death in 1972, the voices of the Chipmunks were subsequently recorded by his son, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr., and his wife, Janice Karman, in all subsequent incarnations to date.
