A
Cold tears fall from his eyes
E
As he turns into the night and walks away
Lucille runs outside
A
Just to see if there might be a sleigh
Little Bobby stares down
D
At the plate where cookies still lay
A
And tries to understand
E A
Why momma said Santa can't stay
D E A
Momma said Santa can't stay
D E A
Said she told him that twice yesterday
D E
Then a car just like Dad's
A F#m
Pulled out and drove away
D E
After momma said Santa couldn't stay
E
Santa can't stay

A
They both heard him coming
E
Saw Mom run down the hall and holler wait
Doug you're drunk don't come inside
A
I'm not joking I've had all this I can take
He threw a present really hard
D
That almost hit Mom's new boyfriend Ray
And yelled ho-ho lucky for you she's here
E A
And said that Santa can't stay
D E A
Momma said Santa can't stay
D E A
Said she told him that twice yesterday
D E
Then a car just like Dad's
A F#m
Pulled out and drove away
D E
After momma said Santa couldn't stay
D E A
Momma said Santa can't stay
D E A
Said she warned him about it twice yesterday
D E
Then a car just like Dad's
A F#m
Pulled out and drove away
D E
After momma said Santa couldn't stay
D E A
Hey momma said Santa can't stay
D E A
Said he might just have to beat the crap out of Ray
D E
Then a car just like Dad's
A F#m
Peeled out and drove away man
D E
After momma yelled Santa couldn't stay
D E A
Momma said Santa can't stay
