Santa On The Rooftop

Ooh, yeah, mmm-hmm

I was walking home on Christmas Eve

The whole neighborhood was fast asleep

The snow was fallin', comin' down hard

The place looked like a picture post card

And when my house came into view

I noticed somethin' up on the roof

You can't imagine my surprise

When I looked closer and realized

It was Santa on the rooftop

And our house was Santa's first roof stop

The reindeer were quiet as a mouse, didn't make a sound

Santa got ready to make his way down

He had one foot in the chimney

Destination, our brand new Christmas tree

I knew everyone was gonna be shocked

When I told them I saw Santa on the rooftop

I tried to get home right away

But I was just a little too late

The gifts were laid out under the tree

But no sign of Mr. S C

I ran over to the fireplace

But there was nothin' but an empty space

Got everybody up out of bed

Their eyes opened wide when I said

I saw Santa on the rooftop

And our house was Santa's first roof stop

The reindeer were quiet as a mouse, didn't make a sound

Santa got ready to make his way down

He had one foot in the chimney

Destination, our brand new Christmas tree

I knew everyone was gonna be shocked

When I told them I saw Santa on the rooftop

Some people think the man's a myth

Had my doubts, I admit

Now, how can I criticize

When somebody says with that look in their eyes?

It was Santa on the rooftop

And our house was Santa's first roof stop

The reindeer were quiet as a mouse, didn't make a sound

Santa got ready to make his way down

One foot in the chimney

Destination, our brand new Christmas tree, yeah

I knew everyone was gonna be shocked

When I told them I saw Santa on the rooftop

Oh, yeah, when I told them I saw Santa on the rooftop

Whoa, when I said I saw Santa on the rooftop

I saw Santa, Santa on the rooftop

Hello Mr. Saint Nick

Why don't you come on down and gimme some "ho ho ho"?

I saw Santa on the rooftop

Come on Santa, boy, bring it over here

Mmm, that's right Santa, lay it on me, woo

Santa on the rooftop

Ooh, Santa on the rooftop

I saw Santa, Santa on the rooftop
