Lyrics
(Folk song)
Chicken crows at midnight, it’s almost day…
Santa Claus is coming…
Time to chop the tree down…
Time to wrap the presents…
Time to bake the cookies…
Sugar cakes and candy…

Hello!
I’d like to ask if I can get a link to the Welcome to Music song?
It’s directing me to a different song from the link. Thank you
The “Welcome to Music” song is included in the “It’s Almost Day” PDF.
