E                                                   A 
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.
