Back Door Santa :: Clarence Carter

It's finally winter and the holiday season!

I filed this song in the back of my head since I heard it last Christmas, and now that's it's after Thanksgiving, I'm thrilled that I can now blog about my new favorite Christmas song, "Back Door Santa" by Clarence Carter.

I don't know what else to say about "Back Door Santa" except that it's a jumping soul tune from the '70s with really suggestive lyrics. You can guess what it suggests from the title. It's way better than "Santa Baby," which has always just creeped me out.

I knew I had to post this song on the blog because it's so hilarious.

Back Door Santa :: Clarence Carter

They call me back door Santa
I make my runs about the break of day
They call me back door Santa
I make my runs about the break of day
I make all the little girls happy
While the boys are out to play

Well I ain't like old Saint Nick
He don't come but once a year
I ain't like old Saint Nick
He don't come but once a year
I come runnin' with my presents
Every time you call me dear

I keep some change in my pocket
To chase the children who are home
I give 'em a few pennies
So we can be alone
I leave the back door open
So in case anyone smells a mouse
Won't Santas be in trouble
If there ain't no chimney in the house

They call me back door Santa
I make my runs about the break of day
They call me back door Santa
I make my runs about the break of day
I make all the little girls happy
While the boys are out to play
