歌曲歌詞
There was a man in our town
He was a man of great renown
And his name was william brown
He was a parson
Christmas week was drawing near
Father and mother were very poor
Had no pudding nor meat in store
For our christmas dinner
I heard pa telling ma
That we weren't gonna have a christmas this year 'cause we was too poor
That made me feel kind of sad so I went out of the house singing
Merry christmas we can't keep
Got no shoes upon my feet
And we have no pudding and meat
For our christmas dinner
A little while later
I went back into the house and I heard ma talking to pa
Henry where'd you get that sheep
Why isn't that the parson's big black sheep
Henry you didn't but he sure did
And now that things were looking up a little bit
I went out of the house singing as loud as I could
Merry christmas we shall keep
Now we've got some pudding and meat
Father stole the parson's sheep
For our christmas dinner
Little boy come over here
Would you mind singing that for me again
Sure parson be glad to
Merry christmas we shall keep
Now we've got some pudding and meat
Father stole the parson's sheep
For our christmas dinner
Well now I sure like the way you sing that
Listen if I give you a shiny new pocket watch and half a crown
Would you come down to my church next sabbath
And sing for the whole congregation
Yes sir
You be there now
So next sunday
With my shiny new pocket watch in one hand
And the half crown in the other
I walked down the aisle and the parson he says
Now listen here everybody
I want you to listen to the song this little boy sings
'Cause every word is the gospel truth
And I takes a big breath and I begins to sing
As I was walking out one day
I met the parson dressed so gay
He and miss molly was makin' hay
Stepped right up and kissed her
Well that's a lie no that's a lie
Everybody just laughed
So I went runnin' back up the aisle singing
How I cheated parson brown
Out of a watch and half a crown
Telling everyone around
How he kissed miss molly
Gee you know
It sure was a swell christmas dinner that year
