; OLD MAN ; May God give you a good evening! ; I see, little Jesus, your little feet are cold, ; I will sew you some tarry yarn ; Little red boots. ; So you, shepherd, is this how you look after my flock? ; ; (He raised his rattle stick and threatened the shepherd) ; ; I'll cut six inches of bacon from your back, ; I'll sew the little Jesuses from that ; Little red boots. ; We haven't slept for three nights, three days, ; Let's sleep for a while, buddy. ; ; (Then we lay down on your head and pretended to be asleep) ; ; ANGEL ; Get up, shepherds! ; Give your flock something to eat. ; Messiah, little Jesus was born in my manger. ; Get up, shepherds! ; ; (Then we got up and started to go around the manger, ; In between we sang and hit the floor with our rattle sticks) ; ; OLD MAN, THE OLD MAN;
