I'm your
Back door Santa
I make my run
At the break of day
They call me
Back door Santa
I make my run
At the break of day
I keep
The little girls happy
While the boys
Are out to play
Well
I ain't like
Old Saint Nick
He don't come
But once a year
(Once a year)
Well
I ain't like
Old Saint Nick
He don't come
But once a year
I come runnin'
With my presents
Every time
You call me dear
I kept some change
In my pocket
When the jumpin's
Goin' on
I gave a few pennies
So we could be alone
I kept that door open
In case anyone
Smelled a mouse
'Cause Santa's
In some trouble
There ain't no chimney
In the house
They call me
Back door Santa
I make my run
At the break of day
They call me
Back door Santa
I make my run
At the break of day
I keep
The little girls happy
While the boys
Are out to play
