Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him

It's not the way I had him pictured

Santa was much too thin

Well he didn't come down the chimney

So Mama must have let him in

Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him



Well they thought that I was fast a sleepin'

They thought that I was tucked in bed

They never thought that I'd come a peepin'

Or that I'd hear what was said

Santa put his arm around Mama

And Mama put her arm around him

So if Santa Claus ain't Daddy

Them I'm gonna tell on them



Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him

It's not the way I had him pictured

Santa was much too thin

Well he didn't come down the chimney

So Mama must have let him in

Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him



I never saw Dancer or Prancer

I never heard the sleigh bells ring

And I never saw the red nosed reindeer

Like they show him on the TV screen

But he sure brought a lot of presents

So Santa Claus he must have been

Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him



Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him

It's not the way I had him pictured

Santa was much too thin

Well he didn't come down the chimney

So Mama must have let him in

Santa looked a lot like Daddy

Or Daddy looked a lot like him
