Hi everybody, this is James Brown

This is a very, very unusual way to come to you

But I gotta start by saying thanks

Thanks for such a wonderful year

Not only to you, to God, number one

To you number two and for all the wonderful things

You know when I look at a beautiful day

I'll say God is there

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

I say it's happy because birds are tweeting

Sun is shining, the wind's blowing the breeze

The leaves are flying, everybody feels nice

Just say, oh God, thanks for all the wonderful things

You even see a little snow sometimes but you know, God only knows

How Christmas is gonna look, so one more time I'll say

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Now let's make our next year be as nice as this year

Now Christmas gotta be the kind of a Christmas

That we remember a long time ago

You remember when everybody used to look forward to it, Santa Claus

You'd wanna know what you gonna have the next day

You couldn't wait until Christmas morning to jump up

But that's the morning you wouldn't go to your table

You go straight to your little sack

Hanging on the mantle over the fireplace

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

You know I just enjoy this and I, I can't really can't find enough words

That would really make me express myself the good feelings that I have

But I wanna say thanks, thanks to God and now

Let's make Christmas the kind of a Christmas that we'd remember

You know, you made Christmas very, very beautiful for me

In my past years but let's make this Christmas beautiful for everybody

The kind of a Christmas that mom, dad, granddad

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
