Long Time Ago In Bethlehem So The Holy Bible Says Mary boy chile, Jesus Christ He born on Christamas-day Listen hear de angels sing A new king born today And man will live forever more Because of Christamas-day While shepherds watched their flocks by night Dem see a bright new shining star And den dem hear a choir sing De music seem to come from afar Hark now hear de angels sing A king was born today And man will live forever more Because of Christamas-day
When Joseph an he wife Mary Came to Bethlehem dat night Dem find no place for to born the child Not a single room was in sight Listen hear de angels sing A new king born today And man will live forever more Because of Christamas-day Den bye and bye dem find a little nook In a stable all forlorn And in a manger cold and dark Mary little boy was born Listen hear de angels sing A new king born today And man will live forever more Because of Christamas-day
