Yo Rosie, what time is it? I do not know
It's Christmas time, girl, why don' we go shopping
You and me get some chestnuts, sit on Santa's lap
I got a good stocking and a fireplace
And I'm waiting for you to fill it up buddy

'Cuz I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and daddy are mad
I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
'Cuz I ain't been nuttin' but bad

I broke my bat on Johnny's head
Somebody snitched on me
I hid a frog in my sister's bed
Somebody snitched on me

Spilled some ink on mommy's rug
I made Tommy eat a bug
Bought some gum with a penny slug
Somebody snitched on me

I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and daddy are mad
I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
'Cuz I ain't been nuttin' but bad

I put a tack on teacher's chair
Somebody snitched on me
I tied a knot in Suzy's hair
Somebody snitched on me

I did a dance on mommy's plants
Climbed a tree and tore my pants
Filled that sugar bowl with ants
And somebody snitched on me

I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and daddy are mad
And I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad

We're gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad
We're gettin' nuttin' for Christmas

So you better be good
The whole year through
'Cuz if you're not, I'm warning you
You'll get nuttin' for Christmas

Nuttin'
I love you Rosie
Come over here you big Santa
