Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm your Back Door Santa

I make my run at the break of day

They call me Back Door Santa

I make my run at the break of day

[Verse 2]

I keep the little girls happy while the boys are out to play

[Verse 3]

Well, I ain't like old Saint Nick, he don't come once a year

Well, I ain't like old Saint Nick, oh, he don't come once a year

I come running with my presents every time you call me, dear

[Verse 4]

I keep some change in my pocket when the children comin' home

I give 'em a few pennies so we can be alone

I keep the back door open case anybody smells a mouse

'Cause Johnny'll be in some trouble if there ain't a chimney in the house

[Verse 5]

Ut-oh

Could be in some trouble boys

Hey, Rudolph, Blitzen, get me out of here

[Verse 6]

They call me Back Door Santa

I make my run at the break of day

They call me Back Door Santa

I make my run at the break of day

I keep them little girls happy while the boys are out to play

[Verse 7]

Can hear 'em say

Ho, ho, ho, ho (Ho, ho, ho, ho)

Hey, hey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Ho, ho, ho, ho (Ho, ho, ho, ho)

Hey, hey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Ho, ho, ho, ho (Ho, ho, ho, ho)

Hey, hey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Come on, boys, give it up

[Verse 8]

Ho, ho, ho, ho (Ho, ho, ho, ho)

Hey, hey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Ho, ho, ho, ho (Ho, ho, ho, ho)

Hey, hey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Ho, ho, ho, ho (Ho, ho, ho, ho)

Merry Christmas, everybody, ooh, yeah

[Verse 9]

Merry Christmas, y'all
