Lyrics
Gifts I'm preparing for some Christmas sharing
Preparing gifts for Christmas to share with others.
But I pause because
Pausing in the process of gift preparation.
I'm hanging my stocking when I can hear a knocking
Hanging a stocking and hearing a knocking sound.
'Zat you Santa Claus
Asking if the person knocking is Santa Claus.
Sure is dark out ain't the slightest spark out
It's very dark outside, and there's no light.
Pardon my clackin' jaw
Apologizing for talking nervously.
Who's there Who is it Are you stopping for a visit
Asking who is at the door and if it's Santa Claus.
'Zat you Santa Claus
Repeating the question if it's Santa Claus.
Are you bringing a present for me
Inquiring if Santa is bringing a present.
Something pleasantly pleasant for me
Desiring something delightful as a gift.
That is just what I've been waiting for
Expressing anticipation for the awaited gift.
Now would you mind slipping it under the door
Requesting Santa to slide the present under the door.
Cool winds are howling or could that be growling
Mentioning the cold winds, possibly with a humorous tone.
My legs feel like straws
Feeling weak or shaky, using a metaphor.
Oh my my me oh my kindly would you reply please
Pleading for a response from Santa Claus.
Zat you Santa Claus
Repeating the question if it's Santa Claus.
I'm hanging the stocking when I can hear a knocking
Revisiting the scene of hanging the stocking and hearing a knock.
Zat you Santa Claus
Asking again if it's Santa Claus.
My my my my my my me oh my kindly would you reply please
Repeating the plea for a response from Santa Claus.
Zat you Santa Claus
Reiterating the question if it's Santa Claus.
Oh there Santa you gave me a scare
Acknowledging Santa's presence and expressing a scare.
Now stop teasing cause I know you're there
Asking Santa to stop teasing and reveal himself.
We don't believe in no goblins today
Denying belief in goblins but feeling scared or uneasy.
But I can't explain why I'm shaking that way
Unable to explain why there's a feeling of shaking.
I bet I can see ole Santa in the keyhole
Suggesting the possibility of seeing Santa through the keyhole.
I'll give to the cause
Willing to contribute to the cause or give something.
One peek and I'll try there oh oh there's an eye there
Expressing curiosity about seeing an eye through the keyhole.
Zat you Santa Claus
Repeating the question if it's Santa Claus.
Please please i pity my knees
Pleading with humor, mentioning knees in distress.
Say that's you Santa Claus
Confirmation that it's Santa Claus.
