Santa Baby
Faith Evans (Holiday) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo bee doo
Santa honey, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, there's one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
In the song "Santa Baby" by Faith Evans, the singer is making a plea to Santa Claus for various extravagant gifts. She begins by asking for a sable fur coat to be placed under the Christmas tree, and suggests she has been a very good girl this year. She then goes on to ask for an out-of-space convertible car in light blue, and promises to wait up for Santa Claus to come down the chimney. She sings about the fun she may have missed out on but promises to be better next year if Santa Claus checks off everything on her Christmas list.
Evans then asks for a yacht, but claims that it's not asking for too much since she has been an angel all year. She also requests the deed to a platinum mine and fills her stocking with a duplex and checks. She asks Santa Claus to sign the X on the line and hurry down the chimney tonight. Evans finishes the song by asking Santa Claus to come and trim her Christmas tree with decorations from Tiffany's and to bring her a ring, not meaning a phone.

Special shout out to you Ms. Faith and your legacy. Youβre a legend, but also sweet, humble, and grounded with an unparalleled gift. A fellow brick city resident and university high school class of β97. I believe I missed you by one year, but you were talked about even then for your unheard of talent. Much respect to Juanda Boxley. Always keep the faith and leave the trash on the street where it belongs. Youβre a living legend.
