| Open the door, think of the poor.Please to let the New Year in,
 The old one out, the new one in.
 
 We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas,
 We wish you a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
 
 A pocket full of money, a cellar full of beer,
 A good fat pig to last you all the year.
 
 The roads are very dirty, the pocket very thin,
 Please, mister master, chuck a penny in.
 
 If you haven't got a penny, a ha'penny will do,
 If you haven't got a ha'penny, then God bless you.
 
 The cock sat up the rue tree, the hen come chuckling by,
 We wish you Merry Christmas, and every day a pie,
 A pie, a pie, a pie, a peppercorn,
 A pie, a pie, a pie, a peppercorn.
