And he whistled, and shouted, and called out to his steed;

"Now, Charger! I've floored it, I'm ready indeed,

To the top of the porch! to the top way up thar!

Now dash away! dash away! dash away car!"

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,

When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky,

So up to the house-top the Charger it flew,

With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.
