Well, Santa looked like daddy, or daddy looked like him.
                              B7                           E
It's not the way I had him pictured, Santa was a much too thin.
                                                            A
He didn't come down the chimney, so momma must have let him in
                         B7                               E
Santa looked a lot like daddy, or daddy looked a lot like him.

E                                                                      A
Well, they thought I was fast a sleepin', they thought I was tucked in bed.
                               B7                                 E
They never thought I'd come a peepin', or that I'd hear what was said
                                                           A
Santa put his arm around mama, and mama put her arm around him.
                          B7                        E
So if Santa Claus ain't daddy, I'm a gonna tell on them.

I never saw Dancer or Prancer, I never heard the sleigh bells ring
                           B7                                  E
I never saw the Red Nosed reindeer, like they show on the TV screen
                                                                    A
But he sure brought a lot of presents, so Santa Claus he must have been
                           B7                                E
He sure looked a lot like Daddy, and daddy looked a lot like him.
