Showing Papa Saint Nick which way to go (Ho, ho, ho, ho ho ho)
He passes through the water while he sits and dreams
Of a cold glass of milk and a plate of *pralines*
And if he's-a lucky get a cup of gumbo...

To find every ★ touploche? ★ and row to shore...
Get ready, Papa Saint Nick is comin' up, is comin' up the bayou!
