(Ah – Lalala laa lalaa laa!)
What makes Mr. Santa so jolly? What gives him his “Ho, ho, ho!”?
Is it a pile of presents waitin’ for him underneath his tree? Nope! I don’t think so!
What makes Mr. Santa so jolly Is the joy he gives away
To a million boys and girls all over the world, Every Christmas Day!
What makes Mrs. Santa so jolly? What puts the twinkle in her eye?
Is it piles and piles of diamonds and furs That reach up to the sky? Nope!
What makes Mrs. Santa so jolly Is spreading warmth and cheer
To every single person that she can, Whether far or near!
Oh, the folks up there at the North Pole Have it figured out just fine
Bringing happiness to others makes them happy all the time!
What makes the little elves so jolly As they labor in the workshop there?
They know with every hammer, every brushstroke, They show how much they care!
What makes Mr. Santa so jolly Is the joy he gives away
To a million boys and girls all over the world, Every Christmas, Every single Christmas,
Ev – ery Christ – mas Day! That’s what makes Santa so jolly! Yeah!
