[Intro] Christmas comes but once a year with presents ’round the tree. When you write to Santa Claus take this tip from me. [Verse 1] 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?" [Verse 2] When Santa Claus gets your letter to ask for Christmas toys He’ll take a look in his good book he keeps for girls and boys. [Chorus] 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! [Verse 3] 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. [Solo] [Verse 4] When Santa Claus gets your letter to ask for Christmas toys He’ll take a look in his good book he keeps for girls and boys. [Chorus] 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! [Verse 5] 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.
