|
When Santa Claus gets your letter, |
|
You know what he will say: |
|
"Have you been good the way you should |
|
On ev'ry single day?" |
|
When Santa gets your letter |
|
To ask for Christmas toys, |
|
He'll take a look in his good book |
|
He keeps for girls and boys. |
|
He'll stroke his beard, his eyes will glow, |
|
And at your name he'll peer; |
|
It takes a little time, you know, |
|
To check back one whole year! |
|
When Santa Claus gets your letter, |
|
I really do believe, |
|
You'll head his list, you won't be missed, |
|
By Santa on Christmas Eve. |
