Zat' You, Santa Claus

'Zat you, Santa Claus?

Gifts I'm preparing for some Christmas sharing

But I pause because

Hanging my stocking I can hear a knocking

‘Zat you, Santa Claus?

Sure is dark out, not the slightest spark out

Pardon my clacking jaws

I said, “Who's there? Who is it, stopping for a visit?

'Zat you, Santa Claus?

Are you bringing a present for me

Something pleasantly pleasant for me

That's just what I've been waiting for

Would you mind slipping it under the door

Cold winds are howling or maybe that be growling

My legs feel like straws

I said, “Oh, my, my, oh, me, my, kindly would you reply?”

'Zat you, Santa Claus?

Hanging my stocking, I can hear a knocking

'Zat you, Santa Claus?

I said, “Hey there, who is it? Are you stopping for a visit?”

'Zat you, Santa Claus?

Whoa there, Santa, you gave me a scare

Now stop teasing ‘cause I know you're there

We don't believe in no goblins today

But I can't explain why I'm shaking this way

Well, I see ole Santa in the keyhole

I'll get to the cause

One peek and I'll cry there

I say, “Oh, there's an eye there”

'Zat you, Santa Claus?

Please, please, I’m bending my knees

‘Zat you, Santa Claus?

That’s him all right
