Good morning blues, blues how do you do,
Good morning blues, blues how do you do,
Babe, I feel alright, but I come to worry you!

Babe, it's Christmas time and I wanna see Santa Claus,
Babe, it's Christmas time and I wanna see Santa Claus,
Don't show me, my pretty baby, I'll break all the laws!

Santa Claus, Santa Claus, listen to my plea,
Santa Claus, Santa Claus, listen to my plea,
Don't send me nothin' for Christmas but my baby back to me!
