Daddy, I'm afraid of going to bed, Santa might miss me tonight.

D                     G          D                   A           D
He mightn't bother to come visit me but go on to the bright city lights.

            G         D                                                 A A7
As gently I wiped the tears from his eyes, I remembered the fears of my youth.

      D                      G       D                     A             D
So, I knew that the time had finally come to tell my young boy the whole truth.

D                                                                     A A7
I said, "Son, there's no need to worry. There's no need to bother and fuss.

          D                           G                   A                     D
We're the first one's that Santa will visit. Yeah, 'cause Santa's a Bayman like us".

D                                                           A              A7
But, Dad, if you say he's a Bayman, why does he live at the North Pole all year?

      D                          G       D                 A            D
Well, Son, there was nothing for Santa to do. Resettlement moved him up there.

D                                                               A           A7
Remember last Christmas Eve, Son? We left him some cake when we all went to bed

     D                        G              D                        A               D
But, when we got up, b'y, the cake was still there! For he'd eaten me cods heads instead!!

D                                                                     A A7
I said, "Son, there's no need to worry. There's no need to bother and fuss.

          D                           G                   A                     D
We're the first one's that Santa will visit. Yeah, 'cause Santa's a Bayman like us".

D                                                                    A A7
Now, I'll prove to you, Son, he's a Bayman by showing the company he keeps.

D                                G                         A                         D
Why the socks that he wears were knit, so I hear, from the wool off of Aunt Martha's sheep.

D                                                                    A A7
Dad, I knew all along he's a Bayman. There's really no need for this chat.

     D                         G                    A                   D
Last Christmas, ole Santa gave Mommy a kiss and she only lets Baymen do that.

D                                                                    A A7
"Well, boys, there's no need to worry. There's no need to bother and fuss.

          D                           G                   A                     D
