Lyrics Nothin' For Christmas - 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 Clause,
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
