Hi everybody,
this is James Brown
This is a very,
very unusual way
to come to you
But I gotta start
by saying thanks
Thanks for such
a wonderful year

Not only to you,
to God, number one
To you number two
and for all
the wonderful things
You know when I look
at a beautiful day
I'll say God is there

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

I say it's happy
because birds
are tweeting
Sun is shining,
the wind's blowing
the breeze
The leaves are flying,
everybody feels nice

Just say, oh God,
thanks for all
he wonderful things
You even see a little snow
sometimes but you know,
God only knows
How Christmas is gonna look,
so one more time I'll say

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Now let's make our next year
be as nice as this year
Now Christmas gotta be
the kind of a Christmas
That we remember
a long time ago

You remember
when everybody used
to look forward to it,
Santa Claus
You'd wanna know
what you gonna have
the next day
You couldn't wait
until Christmas morning
to jump up

But that's the morning
you wouldn't go
to your table
You go straight
to your little sack
Hanging on
the mantle over
the fireplace

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

You know
I just enjoy this and I,
I can't really
can't find enough words
That would really make me
express myself
the good feelings
that I have
But I wanna say thanks,
thanks to God and now
Let's make Christmas
the kind of a Christmas
that we'd remember

You know,
you made Christmas very,
very beautiful for me
In my past years
but let's make
this Christmas
beautiful for everybody
The kind of a Christmas
that mom, dad, granddad

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
