Gathering winter Purell
Gathering winter fuel
Good King Wence's lass looked out
On the feet of Stephen.
Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the Feast of Stephen.
Good King Wencelas last looked out
On the Feast of Stephen.
Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the Feast of Stephen.
Good King Wences Glass looked down
Now we're Even Steven.
Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the feast of Stephen.
Good King Wences car backed out,
on a piece of Stephen
Good King Wenceslas looked out,
on the Feast of Stephen
Good King Wences did loss out.
Good King Wenceslas looked out.
Good King Wences last looked out
On the Feast of Stephen.
Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the Feast of Stephen.
Good King Wenceslas looked out,
On the Feast of Steve, Oh!
When the snow lay round about
Deep as Christmas Eve, Oh!
Good King Wenceslas looked out,
On the Feast of Stephen
When the snow lay round about
Deep and crisp and even
Good King Wenceslas lost no doubt.
Good King Wenceslas looked out.
On the East of Eden
On the Feast of Stephen
The good king went to sloth.
Good King Wenceslas
When a foreman came in sight
Gathering winter fuel
When a poor man came in sight
Gathering winter fuel
When a plumber came in sight
Gathering winter fuel
When a poor man came in sight
Gathering winter fuel
When a woman came in sight
When a poor man came in sight
Where the dough lay round about
Deep-pan, crisp and even.
When the snow lay round about
Deep and crisp and even.
