My baby went shoppin' yesterday,
said "I'm gonna buy what you need for Santa Claus"
My baby went shoppin' yesterday,
said "I'm gonna buy what you need for Santa Claus
I'm gon' take mine with me,
but I leave yours in my dresser drawer"
So that started me to ramblin',
lookin' in all of my baby's dresser drawers
Whoaw that started me to ramblin',
lookin' all in my baby's dresser drawers
Tryin' to find out,
what did she bought me for Santa Claus
When I pull out the bottom dresser drawer,
the landlady got mad and called the law
When I pull out the bottom dresser drawer,
the landlady got mad and called the law
I was just tryin' to find,
what did she bought me for Santa Claus
The police walked in and tapped me on the shoulder,
"what you're doing with your hand in that woman's dresser drawer?"
And the police was lettin' my baby...
showin' where should I find my Santa Claus
I just kept on pullin' out
all of my baby's dresser drawers
I walked out and left the police and the landlady arguin',
said "look at the man done pull out all the lady's dresser drawers"
Yes I walked out and left the police and the landlady arguin',
said "look at the man done pull out all the lady's dresser drawers"
But he said "I'd like to let 'm show the judge
the boy just tryin' to find his Santa Claus"
