BOOGIE WOOGIE SANTA CLAUS
(Leon Rene)

as recorded by Patti Page
with Orchestra directed by Jack Rael
1950


WELL look a-here Jack,
Shovin' down the track,
He's got rhythm in his feet
But nothin' in his sack!

He's the boogie woogie Santa Claus
Boogie woogie Santa Claus,
The boogie woogie Santa
Comes to town every Christmas Day!

He lives up in the mountain
Like a hermit in a cave,
Never had a haircut,
Never took a shave!

Boogie woogie Santa Claus,
Boogie woogie Santa Claus,
The boogie woogie Santa
Will boogie all your blues away!

Rock rock rock Mister Santa,
Jump jump jump Mister Santa!

Got no presents for your tree,
Nor candy for your socks,
When he starts to boogie
The whole town rocks,
Rock Mister Santa!

Mama get your hat,
Put your best dress on,
We're gonna really jump for joy
On Christmas morn!

With the boogie boogie Santa Claus,
Boogie woogie Santa Claus,
The boogie woogie Santa
Will boogie all your blues away!

Rock rock rock Mister Santa,
Jump jump jump Mister Santa,
The boogie woogie Santa
Will boogie all your blues away!
