Christmas in Hollis Songtext

And now, here is American Authors performing one of my favorite songs
By Run-D.M.C., "Christmas in Hollis"

It was December 24th on Hollis Ave, in the dark
When I seen a man chilling with his dog in the park
I approach very slowly with my heart full of fear
Looked at his dog, oh my God, an ill reindeer

But then I was illin′, 'cause the man had a beard
And a bag full of goodies, 12 o′clock had neared
So I turned my head a second and the man had gone
But he left his drivers' wallet smack dead on the lawn

I picked the wallet up, but then I took a pause
'Cause the license, in gold, said "Santa Claus"
A million dollars in it, cold hundreds of G′s
Enough to buy a boat and a matching car with ease

But I′d never steal from Santa 'cause that ain′t right
So I was going home to mail it back to him that night
But when I got home I bugged, 'cause under the tree
Was a letter from Santa and the dough was for me, well


Fa, la-la-la-la, fa, la-la-la-la
Fa, la-la-la-la

Well, it′s Christmastime in Hollis, Queens
Mom's cookin′ chicken and collard greens
Rice and stuffing, macaroni and cheese
And Santa putting gifts under the Christmas trees

Decorate the house with lights at night
Snow is on the ground, snow-white, so bright
In the fireplace is the old yule log
Beneath the mistletoe as we drink eggnog

The rhymes that you hear are the rhymes of Darryl's
But each and every year we bust Christmas carols
Fa, la-la-la-la
Fa, la-la-la-la

I rhymed so loud and proud, you'd hear it
It′s Christmastime and we got the spirit
Jack Frost chillin′, the hawk is out
And that's what Christmas is all about


The time is now, the place is here
And the whole wide world is filled with cheer
My name′s D.M.C. with the mic in my hand
And I'm chilling and coolin′ just like a snowman

So open up your eyes, lend us an ear
Sayin', Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, like
Merry Christmas
And a happy New Year

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
