[Listen] [PDF] [MusicXML] Emilie Poulsson. C.C. Roeske. music 1. Skim, skim, skim,
With the skimmer bright;
Take the rich and yellow cream,
Leave the milk so white. | | | 2. Churn, churn, churn,
Now ’tis churning day;
Till the cream to butter turn
Dasher must not stay. | 3. Press, press, press;
All the milk must be
From the golden butter now
Pressed out carefully. | | | 4. Pat, pat, pat,
Make it smooth and round.
See! the roll of butter’s done—
Won’t you buy a pound? | 5. Taste, oh! taste,
This is very nice.
Spread it on the children’s bread,
Give them each a slice. | |
XVIII. SANTA CLAUS
XVIII.—SANTA CLAUS. O, clap, clap the hands,
And sing out with glee
For Christmas is coming
And merry are we! Now swift o’er the snow
The tiny reindeer
Are trotting and bringing
Good Santa Claus near.
Our stockings we’ll hang,
And while we’re asleep
Then down through the chimney
Will Santa Claus creep. He’ll empty his pack,
Then up he will come
And, calling his reindeer,
Will haste away home. Then clap, clap the hands!
And sing out with glee,
For Christmas is coming
And merry are we!
