Santa used to like to chuckle
He's always been a bellyful of laughs,
Sittin' in his Santa Claus chair
Posing for the photographs
But now he don't laugh so much
In fact, about one-third less
Old Saint Nick got a problem
Man, he's in an awful mess
'Cause he used to go, ho-ho-ho
Now he's only goin' ho-ho (Oh-oh! Where'd the other ho go?)
I don't know
But Santa's feelin' might low
He used to do, hidey-ho
Now he's only doing hidey (Oh-oh! Where'd the other ho go?)
I don't know, Santa lost a ho
Now, Santa's been doin' his best
To get into the Christmas mood
Keepin' his little elves happy
He's the number one Christmas dude
But there ain't no joy
'Cause just one toy
Is missin' from Santa's shack
He never had a doll go awol
Once he got her in the sack
'Cause he used to go, ho-ho-ho
Now he's only goin' ho-ho (Oh-oh! Where'd the other ho go?)
I don't know
But Santa's feelin' mighty low
He used to do hidey-ho
Now he's only doin' hidey (Oh-oh! Where'd the other ho go?)
I don't know
Santa lost a ho
You better find that ho
Before it takes off Christmas eve
'Cause a Santa that's only got two ho's
No one would believe
Oh, Santa if you need some cheerin'
Stop by on your way
Jug Band goin' to par-tay
All the way to Christmas day
Just open up your bag of joy
Soon you gonna feel alright
You're gonna leave here laughin'
Even if you're one ho light
'Cause he used to go, ho-ho-ho
Now he's only goin' ho-ho (Oh-oh! Where'd the other ho go?)
I don't know
But Santa's feelin' mighty low
He used to do hidey-ho
Now he's only doin' hidey (Oh-oh! Wwwhere'd the other ho go?)
I don't know
Santa lost a ho
But I do know
Good things in life
They come and go
Poor old Santa lost a ho
