Old Santa Claus sat alone in his den,

With his leg crossed over his knee;

While a comical look peeped out of his eyes,

For a funny old fellow was he.

His queer little cap was tumbled and torn,

And his wig it was all awry;

But he sat and mused the whole day long,

While the hours went flying by.

He had been as busy as busy could be,

In filling his pack with toys;
