_ [C] _ [E] I'm going to sing a song called Santa Claus.
When I was four I [G] believed in Santa Claus, [B] though I [E] knew it was [G] a lie.
[E] And I would [Am] hang up my [G] stocking at [C] Christmas, [E] hoping my presents [G] would not be glad.
[Am] _ [G] But the last [F] time I played [E] Father [A] Christmas, I stood outside [F] the department [E]
store.
[C] A [E] gang of [A] kids came over and loved [C] me, and knocked [E] my rings into [G] the floor.
_ _ _ [F] They said, [C] Father [F] Christmas, [C] give us your [F] money, don't mess [F] around, don't [G] send your [F] toys.
We'll beat you up, [C] don't hang it over, we want your [F] presents, so don't [G] make us annoyed.
Give all the _ toys _ [C] to the little niche boy.
