It's half past midnight on Christmas Eve
The Newfies are celebrating with their jigs
But through the front door walks a man in red
And through his beard this is what he said
Did you ever see Santa do the Newfie jig
At half past midnight on Christmas Eve
Rudolph comes in with a step or two
And Mr. Claus says this is what you do
You take one step forward and two steps back
A Newfie tradition and it's a fact
They say it's traditional on Christmas Eve
When Santa Claus does a Newfie jig
And mother was there and some mummers too
The scrooge didn't like it but he stepped a tune
They say it was a Christmas merry cade(?)
If you ask the Newfie this is what he'll say
Did you ever see Santa do the Newfie jig
At half past midnight on Christmas Eve
Rudolph comes in with a step of two
And Mr. Clause says this is what you do
You take one step forward and two steps back
A Newfie tradition and its a fact
They say it's traditional on Christmas eve
When Santa Clause does a Newfie jig
And mother was there and some mummers too
The scrooge didn't like it but he stepped a tune
They say it was a Christmas merry cade(?)
If you ask the Newfie this is what he'll say
If you ask a Newfie this is what he'll say
