Songtexte Santa Mouse - Burl Ives

Who's the little friend on Santa's shoulder?
Santa Mouse
Yeah, who do we look for when it's colder?
Santa Mouse
He's the one who once was just a mouse without a name
'Til he did a deed so very kind when Christmas came
Who thought about a gift for Santa Claus?
Who wrapped a piece of cheese up with his paws?
He's the little fellow with the biggest heart
With all the whiskers, is it any wonder
Santa named him Santa Mouse?

Once there was a tiny mouse
Who lived all alone in a great big house
With playmates who were all imaginary
Until one night Saint Nicholas appeared
Gave him a suit and hooked on a beard
And took him on a trip so light and airy

Who's the little friend on Santa's shoulder?
Santa Mouse
Who do we look for when it's colder?
Santa Mouse
He's the one who once was just a mouse without a name
'Til he did a deed so very kind when Christmas came
Who thought about a gift for Santa Claus?
Who wrapped a piece of cheese up with his paws?
He's the little fellow with the biggest heart
With all the whiskers, is it any wonder
Santa named him Santa Mouse?
