The Christmas Riddle - Peggy Lee
Children may I tell a riddle
Of someone who's dear to you
Maybe you will guess the answer
Long before I'm through
Riddle a riddle oh tell us a riddle
Tell us a riddle please do
Well long ago there lived a bishop
Who was such a kindly man
All his life was spent in giving
That was how it all began
And they say he rode a white horse
As he went from door to door
Giving presents sweets and good things
Need I tell you any more
Riddle a riddle it still is a riddle
Tell us oh please tell us more
Next the legend says the children
Would leave hay in a wooden shoe
For the white horse he was riding
Now you have another clue
You gave us a clue you gave us a clue
About hay in a wooden shoe
He has many another name
In many another far off land
But no matter what the language
Every child will understand
Well now when you hang your stocking
He was why that all began
All the world has kept the custom
Of this kind and saintly man
We've got it we've got it we just guessed the riddle
We know how it all began
Yes you know now it was saint nicholas
For giving gifts he was the cause
Some have named him dear Kriss Kringle
Others call him Santa Claus
And much like the sweet dutch children
Would leave hay in a wooden shoe
Others leave some for the reindeer
And give presents too
Riddle the riddle we guessed the riddle
The riddle of dear old saint nick
The riddle of old saint nick
