Lyrics
IF SANTA CAN'T MAKE IT...
Intro
Halloween is over, Christmas is close at hand. If Santa can't make it nobody will understand.
CHORUS
If Santa can't make it, who's gonna help the young and old,
If Santa can't make it, we can't put Christmas on hold,
Santa can't make it, just because Rudy's got a cold.
VERSE 1
When Rudy tried to pull the sleigh, every sneeze just caused delay,
All the presents fell out on the way, Poor old Rudy was sent to sickbay.
CHORUS
If Santa can't make it, who's gonna help the young and old,
If Santa can't make it, we can't put Christmas on hold,
Santa can't make it, just because Rudy's got a cold.
Bridge:
We wish you a merry Christmas. Santa Cause might not be coming to town.
All I want is Rudy to get better, better, better. Christmas is here, everybody wants to
have fun. Christmas is here, but what if Santa can't make the run?
CHORUS
If Santa can't make it, who's gonna help the young and old,
If Santa can't make it, we can't put Christmas on hold,
Santa can't make it, just because Rudy's got a cold.
VERSE 2
Shadrack and Prancer took over the reins, Thunder and Lightning used every deer's brains,
Although the deers were feeling the strains, they delivered the gifts without any refrains.
(Outro)
So, If Santa can't make it, just because the sleigh is undermanned.
If Santa can't make it, Christmas has never been banned.
If Santa can't make it, the other deers will always give a hand.
