My favorite James Brown Christmas Song
Published:
Updated:
I just thought about this Christmas song that James Brown did years ago. I haven't heard it yet this year. I'll be listening for it.
Santa Claus, Go Straight to the Ghetto
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
Pitch up your reindeer. Uh!
Go straight to the ghetto
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
And every stockings you buy,
The kids are gonna love you. So, Uh!
Leave a toy for Johnny
Leave a dog for Mary
Leave something pretty for Donnie
And don't forget about Gary
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
Tell him James Brown sent you. Ha!
Go straight to the ghetto.
You know that I know that you will see
Cause' that was once. Me.
Hit it! Hit it!
You see mothers and soul brothers
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
Santa Claus, oh lord, go straight to the ghetto
And every stockings you buy,
The kids are gonna love you
So, pick up a stocking you find
You'll know they need you
So, I'm begging you Santa Claus,
Go straight to the ghetto
If anyone wanna know,
Tell him James Brown told you
So, Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
Never thought I realized, I'll be singing a song
With one of you. My!
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto.
Don't leave nothing for me
I have you
Can't you see?
Santa Claus, go straight to the ghetto
Santa Claus, the soul brothers need you
So, Santa Claus, tell him James Brown sent you...

You just reminded me of a story. In 1992 I was vacationing on Tortolla and sitting alone in a deserted restaurant. It was May, the off-season. It's called that for a good reason, I guess, since it was raining every day and the mosquitos were out of control. Anyway, when I sat down to order, the waiter asked "do you want a spray of Off?" That's something I'll always remember. I had a few tails (hey, it was a vacation!) and began to get into the music playing, rocking in my seat. I asked the waiter to turn it up a bit, since nobody else was dining. James Brown was singing "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" and I really started to get "into the groove" as they say. Then the waiter said "I've heard of him. My grandmother used to listen to his music." Put me in my place pretty fast! LOL
