Ain't No Chimneys In the Projects

When I was a child, I used to wonder

How Santa put my toys under the tree

I said, momma can you tell me, how this can be?

When there ain't no chimneys in the projects

(Ain't no chimneys in the projects) Not in the ghetto, not in the projects

(Ain't no chimneys in the projects) No

Momma sat me down and said baby

Santa Claus, does magic things

As soon as your asleep, a chimney will appear

And in the morning, you will see all he brings

Don't you worry, that there ain't no chimneys in the projects

(Ain't no chimneys in the projects) Not in the ghetto, not in the projects

(Ain't no chimneys in the projects) No, no

Now I'm all grown and I see (Grown and I see)

It wasn't Santa who that got that magic done

But momma now I know,  you were the one

There ain't no chimneys, oh, oh, oh, oh (Ain't no chimneys)

No, no, no, in the projects (Ain't no chimneys in the projects)

(Ain't no chimneys in the projects) Not in the ghetto

(Ain't no chimneys in the projects) Ain't no chimneys in the projects

(Not in the ghetto, ain't no chimneys in the projects) Momma whoa

(Not in the ghetto, ain't no chimneys in the projects)
