David DeBoy – Crabs for Christmas Lyrics
Artist: David DeBoy
Song: Crabs for Christmas
In a department store north of Houston
Sat a Santa Claus on Christmas Eve
In a minute he knows, The front door will close
And this tired, old Santa can pack up and leave
But this big fella came out of nowhere
And he sat right down on Santa’s knee
Well, that whole place stopped dead
As the big fella said
“Dear Santa, I ‘preciate you listening to me.”
And he said…
Oh, I want crabs for Christmas
Oh, only crabs will do
Oh, and with crabs for Christmas
My Christmas wish’ll come true.”
Well that Santa, he started perspiring
And he looked like he might be in pain
And his face got all stiff
As he asked the man if
He would take just a moment and kindly explain
Well, the man said
“You know, I’m from Maryland
And them crabs is what I’m itching for
Don’t you know, Santa Dear
With steamed crabs and a beer
It would be like a trip back to old Baltimore.”
Baltimore…
Oh, I want crabs for Christmas
Oh, only crabs will do
Oh, and with crabs for Christmas
My Christmas wish’ll come true.”
Round that corner came two big policemen, And they saw the man on Santa’s lap
Well, they reached for his throat
And his bowling league coat
And they picked him up, losing his Oriole cap
Santa cried, “Put him down right this instant
Now, my boy, what you want’s not so odd
But there’s no crabs ’til May
So we’ll hop in my sleigh
And we’ll fly to New England
Where I’ll get you scrod.”
No not scrod!…
Oh, I want crabs for Christmas
Oh, only crabs will do
Oh, and with crabs for Christmas
My Christmas wish’ll come true
O-o-o-oh, I want crabs for Christmas
Oh, only crabs will do
Oh, and with crabs for Christmas
My Christmas wish’ll
My Christmas wish’ll
My Christmas wish’ll
Whistles
What’s that?
Oh, hon, don’t you know?
That’s my Christmas whistle!
My Christmas wish’ll come true!
