Lost my favorite reindeer
In a hurricane, got soakin' wet
On account of rain
Countin' my troubles by
threes and by twos
Even
Santa
Claus gets the blues
What I wouldn't give for
just one silent night
Just me and
Mama
Claus by the warm firelight
But
Christmastime is comin'
There's just so much to do
Even
Santa
Claus gets the blues
Well, I know every single chimney,
like the back of my hand
People leave me milk and cookies,
and I just think that's grand
As the story goes, I'm a dearly loved man
But the reason for the season,
some folks just don't understand
So it's back to the workshop
to make more toys
Can't wait to give them to
all the girls and boys
I'm hookin' up my sleigh,
go ahead and spread the news
But sometimes even
Santa
Claus gets the blues
He knows every single chimney,
like the back of his hand.
People leave him milk and cookies,
and he thinks that's grand.
As the story goes,
he's a dearly loved man.
Reason for the season some folks
just don't understand.
So it's back to the workshop,
gotta make some more toys
Can't wait to give them to
all my girls and boys
I'm hookin' up my sleigh,
go ahead and spread the news
But sometimes, sometimes,
sometimes, sometimes
Even
Santa
Claus gets the blues
