Subject: Lyr Add: SANTA GOT STUCK IN THE CHIMNEY (D Haddock
Here's another song I found on Spotify:


SANTA GOT STUCK IN THE CHIMNEY
As sung by Durwood Haddock on "New Christmas Tunes" (2009)

INTRO: Well, I want to tell you somethin' that you may not believe,
But really it did happen on one Christmas eve.
You may not believe it, but I can promise you
Ev'ry single word I say is true.

1. Santa got stuck in the chimney, an' he just couldn't move.
He wiggled and he squirmed an' he huffed an' he puffed.
He couldn't come down an' he couldn't go up.
All of us little children were more than a little confused.
We wondered why old Santa Claus was a-wearin' Daddy's shoes.

2. Santa got stuck in the chimney; he didn't know what to do.
He turned an' squirmed against the bricks,
And he realized he was in a fix.
We heard him call to Mama: "You gotta get me out o' here."
None of us kids could figure out why he kept callin' Mama "dear."

3. Santa got stuck in the chimney; my mama called nine-one-one.
The firemen scrambled to the top o' the house.
It must 'a' been a' hour 'fore they got him out.
Next day when he came to breakfast, Daddy hobbled on one foot,
And none of us kids could understand why his face was covered with soot.

[Repeat verses 1 and 2 and fade.]
