Ray Stevens - Bad Little Boy lyrics

rate me

Thanksgiving is all over and my dad put up the tree

Looks like a merry Christmas for everyone - but me

'Cause I ain't gettin' nothin' this Christmas

Not even one little toy

They say I ain't gettin' nothin' at all this Christmas

'cause I've been a bad little boy

My mommy screamed when she found my pet gerbil

in my little baby sister's basinette

They say my little baby sister has a soft spot in her

head

but I haven't found it - yet

And dad yelled just cause I took the ridin' mower

for a little trip down to the candy store

And my big brother Brett, boy did he get upset

when I told mom about the magazines in his bottom

drawer

So, I ain't gettin' nothin' this Christmas

and last christmas I was everybody's pride and joy

But they say I ain't gettin' nothin' at all this

Christmas

'cause I've been a bad little boy

I was hopin' I might get a chemistry set or a

motorcycle

or something like that

But that's before I used Brett's model rocket set

and made an astronaut out of Miss Wilcox's cat

Stupid cat

If he'da just held on tight like I told him

I wouldn'a had to super glue his little paws to the

rocket

Yeah, if he'da just been still like I told him

he wouldn'a thrown the rocket off course

and he wouldn'a landed in Butch the bull dog's back

yard

Stupid cat

But did the cat get in trouble? nooo! but

Hey, I ain't gettin' nothin' this Christmas

Not even one little toy

They all say I ain't gettin' nothin' this Christmas

'cause I've been a bad little boy

Oh, my grandma had to go to the hospital

Yeah, but don't worry, she's not really sick

She just had a little trouble walking for awhile

after I showed her my Power Ranger kick

So, I ain't gettin' nothin' this Christmas

not from mom or dad or brett or Grandma

They all say I ain't gettin' nothin' at all this

Christmas

but they don't know my grandpa!

My grandpa'd give me anything I want I bet

"Boys will be boys," that's what Grandpa says

"Lighten up bill, he's just a little kid!"

My grandpa calls my dad "Bill!"

I just hope my grandpa doesn't find out

who took his Great Big Bertha golf clubs though

It's true what they say about the Great Big Bertha

I can hit a rock farther with a Great Big Bertha

than with any of my dad's golf clubs

Even with the big dents I put in it

That rock just goes and goes

One rock went through Miss Wilcox's window

Wish it'da hit that stupid cat

I hate that cat
