Story Behind The Song

Children all over the world anxiously await the arrival of Santa and all his gifts at Christmas time and parents often use this as tool to get them to behave by telling their children that Santa only brings gifts to good little girls and boys.

Song Description

The singer of the song himself seems to think he's "in big trouble" when he finds out that Santa's gonna find out who's been naughty or nice.

SANTA?S GETTING? READY

Words and Music by
Lacey Roland

(VERSE ONE) OH, THERES A DAY, (DECEMBER 25TH)
WHEN BOYS AND GIRLS, (ARE GONNA GET A GIFT)
MIGHT BE GOOD, MIGHT BE COAL OR STICKS
THE DECISION FOR THAT IS UP TO OLD SAINT NICK

(CHORUS) SANTA?S GETTING? READY, (OH YEAH)
HE?S MAKIN? A LIST AND HE?S CHECKIN? IT TWICE
SANTA?S GETTING? READY, (OH YEAH)
HE?S GONNA FIND OUT WHO?S BEEN NAUGHTY OR NICE

(BRIDGE) IF YOU?VE BEEN GOOD YOU?VE GOT NOTHIN? TO WORRY ABOUT
YOU DON?T NEED TO CRY, YOU DON?T NEED TO POUT
BUT, WHEN HE COMES TO TOWN FRIEND, THERES NO DOUBT
IF YOU?VE BEEN BAD HE?S GONNA FIND IT OUT!

(VERSE TWO) ON CHRISTMAS EVE, (WHEN THE LIGHT GO DOWN)
OLD SAINT NICK, (IS GONNA COME TO TOWN)
AND WHAT YOU GET WILL ALL DEPEND
ON JUST HOW MANY OF THE RULES YOU BENT

(CHORUS, BRIDGE, CHORUS)

(SPOKEN)
SAY WHAT? HE?S COMIN? WHEN?
OH, MAN DON?T TELL ME THAT, I?M IN BIIIIIG TROUBLE

WELL, IT?S THE TOP OF THE HOUR AND WE?VE HAD OUR FIRST SANTA SIGHTING.

WELL, THERE YOU HAVE IT KIDS. YOU BETTER GET IN BED BECAUSE YOU KNOW SANTA DOESN?T DROP OFF PRESENTS IF YOU?RE NOT IN BED. OH, AND BY THE WAY, DON?T FORGET THE MILK AND COOKIES. YOU KNOW HOW SANTAS LOVES HIS MILK AND COOKIES!
