about

A simple song for Christmas about the joys of home made gifts.

lyrics

Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
And lady maybe think of me
Lady maybe think of me

Christmas time is a time to share
So I thought I'd make you something just to show I care
An effigy of Father C
For you to hang with glee upon your Christmas tree
For you to hang with glee upon your Christmas tree

Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
And lady maybe think of me
Lady maybe think of me

Ah yeah!

With my needle and thread it didn't go like I'd planned
Now Little Saint Nick has only got one hand
But his lack of other arm doesn't do him any harm
Because he's hanging from your tree in all his singular charm
He's hanging from your tree in all his singular charm

Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
And lady maybe think of me

Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
The Christmas tree
Put the one arm Santa on the Christmas tree
And lady maybe think of me
Lady maybe think of me
Lady maybe think of me
Lady maybe think of me
Lady maybe think of me
