Lyrics

Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Hitch up your reindeer, uh! And go straight to the ghetto Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Fill every stocking you find The kids are gonna love you so, uh! Leave a toy for Johnny Leave a doll for Mary Leave something pretty for Donnie And don't forget about Gary Santa Claus, uh, go straight to the ghetto Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Tell 'em James Brown sent you, huh! Go straight to the ghetto You know that I know what you will see 'Cause that was once me Hit it, hit it! You see mothers and soul brothers Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Santa Claus, oh Lord, go straight to the ghetto Fill every stocking you find The kids are gonna love you so Fill every stocking you find You know that they need you so I'm begging you, Santa Claus Go straight to the ghetto If anyone wanna know Tell 'em Hank Ballard told you so Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Never thought I'd realize I'd be singing a song with water in my eyes Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Don't leave nothing for me I've had my chance, you see? Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto Santa Claus, the soul brother need you so Santa Clause, tell 'em James Brown sent you
