Eartha Kitt - Nothin' For Christmas

I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
Poor little Eartha is sad
I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
'Cause I didn't wanna be bad

Jim promised me a sable coat
Just for a little kiss
A diamond ring and motorboat
Just for a little kiss

He said "I'll buy out the stores
Everything I have is yours
I will be your Santa Claus
Just for a little kiss"

I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
My little Jimmy is mad
I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
'Cause I didn't wanna be bad

Jack promised me a ruby clip
Just for a tiny squeeze
A wardrobe plus a Paris trip
Just for a tiny squeeze

He said, "Dear be nice to me
And on Christmas Day you'll see
Presents 'round your Christmas tree
Just for a tiny squeeze"

But I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
My little Jackie is mad
I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
'Cause I didn't wanna be bad

I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas
'Cause I didn't wanna be bad

So take my advice
I think you should
It's good to be good
But not too good
Or you'll get

Nothin' for Christmas
