about
Joe & I recorded this in the early winter of 2009 for my niece, Eleanor. The music is based on the Turtles song, "Elenore," * with different lyrics written by myself.
lyrics
Santa comes down the chimney
But if you don’t have a chimney
He’ll come through the back door,
Maybe the front door
Leave out those milk & cookies
And maybe a mint or two, please
‘Cause if you leave water it’ll just freeze
Eleanor, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year next and then Happy Martin Luther King Day
Eleanor, Happy Valentine’s Day, spend it in a special way,
I hope you get a lovely letter
Santa’s been working all year
Training his nine flying reindeer
Keeping a list of naughty & nice kids
So always do what you’re supposed to
Try not to get too close to
The kids that will tell you bad things to do
Eleanor Anne Santosusso, better hide that mistletoe and bundle up ‘cause of the weather
Eleanor, please please take the time to find your mittens, boots, and find
Your scarf and then go find your sweater
Eleanor, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Eleanor, Merry Christmas and Happy Martin Luther King Day
