James Brown - Santa Claus Is Definitely Here To Stay lyrics

Ain't no use in saying there ain't no Santa Claus 'Cause Santa Claus is definitely here to stay in the mind Ain't no use in saying there ain't no money in the bank for toys 'Cause it was put up a long time ago for a rainy day Ain't no use in saying you don't love all your brats 'Cause I'm watching you as you hustle them off to play Keep the family strong with a little faith, love and hope And you can always get along Ain't no use, oh now, in crying about spilt milk in the past Because all the cats had a feast Ain't no use in worrying about who's doing you wrong Just leave them there and go away in peace Ain't no use in saying what you gonna do and what you ain't gonna do Because with your power, you doing your best So release yourself from all that strain and take that money out the bank And just give your, give yourself a rest Take some of that money in the bank and give yourself a play 'Cause Santa Claus is definitely here to stay Ain't no use, ain't no use, Ain't no use Ain't no use in saying, "Ah, I would like to get rid of them all" 'Cause you know you're only fooling yourself So grab one hand on the wheel and the other around your kids And go on and laugh yourself to d**h Ain't no use in saying "I wouldn't, I wouldn't give a nickel for them all" When you know you wouldn't take nothing for either one So go on tell the truth 'cause if you don't you a lying son of a gun 'Cause you wouldn't take nothing for them all Ain't no use, oh now You know I probably won't be there this Christmas But if I do I still want to say "Merry Christmas" to you and especially you I wanna say "Merry Christmas" to all the people who can't find themselves Let's try to get together live in peace Love one another and treat each and man like he's your brother With a little love, and kindness
