Let The Mummers In (Chuck Simms) with lyrics and video

Let the mummers in, Ma, let the mummers in,
It's Christmas time in Newfoundland so let the mummers in.

There's five of them at the door, Ma, 'cordion and a fiddle,
I don't know who they are, Ma, it's kind of a Christmas riddle.

So let the mummers in, Ma, let the mummers in,
Christmas comes but once a year, so let the mummers in.

Ma says come on in, boys, don't ever lift your masks,
Just wipe your feet on the mat, boys, that's all that mother asks;
Get out the cake and syrup, Ma, and the rabbit stew,
Open up a bottle of screech, and a keg of me home brew.

Let the mummers in, Ma, let the mummers in,
Christmas comes but once a year, so let the mummers in.

I know it's you, Al Penney, although you wear that wig,
Keep the strap off your 'cordion and play us a little jig.

Let the mummers in, Ma, let the mummers in,
We got till old Christmas Day, so let the mummers in.
