     Santa Baby, slip a sable under the 
 tree, For me. . . . . .     been an awful good 
 girl, Santa baby,so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa baby, a 54 convertible too,
Light blue . . . . . . 
I'll wait up for you dear,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

[B9] Think of all the fun I've missed,
[E] Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed,
[A] Next year I could be just as good,
If [D] you'll check off my[D+]Christmas list,

Santa baby, I wanna yacht,
And really that's not a lot,
Been an angel all year,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa honey, there's one more thing I really do need,
The deed . . . . . . . 
To a platinum mine,
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex,
And checks. . . . . . . . . . . .
Sign your 'X' on the line,
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight.


Come and trim my Christmas tree,
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's,
I really do believe in you,
Let's see if you believe in me,

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing,
A ring . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I don't mean on the phone,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry, tonight.
