When I was nursery-school age, this was my favorite Christmas carol:

Christmas is a-coming, the goose is getting fat.
Would you please put a penny in an old man’s hat?
If you haven’t got a penny, a half-penny will do.
If you haven’t got a half-penny, God bless you.

Christmas is a-coming. Lights are on the tree.
Hang up your stocking for Santa Claus to see.
If you haven’t got a stocking, a little sock will do.
If you haven’t got a little sock, God bless you!
