"Up on the House Top" is a Christmas song written by Benjamin Hanby in 1864 in the town of New Paris, Ohio. It has been recorded by a multitude of singers, most notably Gene Autry in 1953.
According to William Studwell in The Christmas Carol Reader, "Up on the House Top" was the second-oldest secular Christmas song, outdone only by "Jingle Bells", which was written in 1857 (although the latter was originally intended as a Thanksgiving song). It is also considered the first Yuletide song to focus primarily on Santa Claus. According to Readers Digest Merry Christmas Song Book, Hanby probably owes the idea that Santa and his sleigh land on the roof of homes to Clement C. Moore's 1822 poem, "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (also commonly known as "The Night Before Christmas"). Benjamin Russell Hanby was born in 1833 near Rushville, Ohio, the son of a minister involved with the Underground Railroad. During his short life, he wrote some 80 songs before dying of tuberculosis in 1867. Other than "Up on the House Top", his best-known song is "Darling Nelly Gray".
Chicago (i/ʃᵻˈkɑːɡoʊ/ or /ʃᵻˈkɔːɡoʊ/) is the third most populous city in the United States. With over 2.7 million residents, it is the most populous city in the state of Illinois and the Midwest. The Chicago metropolitan area, often referred to as Chicagoland, has nearly 10 million people and is the third-largest in the U.S. Chicago is the seat of Cook County.
Chicago was incorporated as a city in 1837, near a portage between the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River watershed, and grew rapidly in the mid-nineteenth century. The city is an international hub for finance, commerce, industry, technology, telecommunications, and transportation: O'Hare International Airport is the busiest airport in the world when measured by aircraft traffic; it also has the largest number of U.S. highways and rail road freight. In 2012, Chicago was listed as an alpha global city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network, and ranked seventh in the world in the 2014 Global Cities Index.As of 2014, Chicago had the third largest gross metropolitan product in the United States at US$610.5 billion.
"Chicago" is a song by American recording artist Michael Jackson. The song was originally recorded during the Invincible recording sessions under the name "She Was Lovin' Me". A reworked version of the song was included in Jackson's posthumous album Xscape.
It was first revealed that "Chicago" would be the first release from the Xscape album. However, plans changed and "Love Never Felt So Good" became the debut release instead.
The song was released on May 5, 2014 on Sony Entertainment Network as a promotional single for promoting Xscape.
The song's "Papercha$er Remix" was made available for select Sony customers through Xperia Lounge and Music Unlimited as Track 9 of the standard edition.
Chicago (also Chicago/State in station announcements) is a rapid transit station on the Red Line of the Chicago 'L'. It serves a significant portion of the Near North Side and Streeterville neighborhoods. With 5,259,992 overall boardings in 2014, it is the busiest station on the Red Line north of the Loop.
The second stop on the Red Line north of the Chicago River, Chicago station lies in the central portion of the Near North Side. Specifically, it is located underneath the intersection of State Street and Chicago Avenue. It is three blocks west of the northern section of the Magnificent Mile; the Chicago Water Tower is located on that strip at the intersection of Chicago and Michigan Avenues. It is also the closest 'L' station to the John Hancock Center, Holy Name Cathedral, the Rush Street entertainment district, and the downtown campus of Loyola University Chicago. The Chicago campus of the Moody Bible Institute is also nearby.
The Chicago station opened on October 17, 1943, as part of the State Street Subway, which forms the central portion of what is now the Red Line between North/Clybourn and Roosevelt stations.

Here comes santa claus

Here comes santa claus
Here comes santa claus
Here he comes, here he comes
Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
Out jumps good old santa claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for everyone's christmas joys
Tito had just one desire
That he gets a new guitar
But he wants a guarantee
That it won't play out of key
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick
(I said) ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick

Here comes santa claus
Here he comes, here he comes
Jackie's almost six feet tall
But no hot shot at basketball
Bring him a basket three feet tall
Maybe he'll play like a pro
Marlon wears his shoes so thin
He's gone through his socks again
He's always dancin' as you know
(So bring me some shoes with lots of sole)
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick
(I said) ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick
Patter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter
Pitter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter
Oh dasher, dancer, prancer and vixen
Come on comet, cupid, donner and blixen
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!
Did you read santa claus my list?
All the girls you're waiting to kiss?
Mike, that list was only a joke
Too late, jermaine, he's bringing you mistletoe
But you just want toys and stuff
Yeah, but that's not even half enough
What I want means more than fun
What's that? - love and peace for everyone
Up on the house top reindeer stand
Waiting for that dear old man
Up to the chimney with gifts to spare
And lots of christmas joy to share
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn't go?
