Uncle Ruckus' Favorite Christmas Songs
ALL I WANT CHRISTMAS
(IS SOME PRETTY WHITE WHITE SKIN)Lyrics by Gary Anthony Williams
Music by Nick Jameson
When I wake up Christmas day
I hope all my cares done faded away
All I want Christmas
Is some pretty white skin.
Pretty please Jesus Christ,
Make my skin 'bout as white as converted rice
All I want Christmas Is some pretty white skin.
White presents wrapped up in pretty white paper
Underneath the Christmas tree Lord want you take a hint from that
And wrap up poor black me (in white!)
Jesus won't you fix my mess
And cure this curse of negro-ness
All I want Christmas
Is some pretty white skin.
White skin, snow white skin
I'm alabaster, my friend
White skin, snow white skin
Ain't no club I can't get in.
Can't you see me walkin' round the 'fluent part of town
Telling all the black folk to leave. (Scram Darkie!) Baby don't you think, I'm pretty in pink?
It's the greatest gift any colored man can receive.
You can have yo Jangle Bells
And yo Fa La La and yo Ho's as well
All I want Christmas
Is some pretty white skin
Is some pretty white skin
Is some pretty white skin
CHRISTMAS IS FOR CHILDREN(especially if they white)
I
Christmas ain’t for grown folk
No sir, they all had their turn.
They stood underneath that mistletoe
They watched the yule logs burn.
Every mama every papa,
Who’ve seen the reindeer’s flight,
They know Christmas is for children
Especially if they’re white.
Chorus
Merry christmas white children
On that blessed Christmas morn
Wasn’t no Negro in the crowd there
When that li’l white boy was born
Merry Christmas white children
May all your dreams come true
Christ didn’t die for the coloreds
His blood was shed for you.
II
Snow-swept lanes and sweet mint candies
Red ribbons all around
Choo choo trains and dolls and dandies
It’s all wasted on the brown
Presents wrapped in Christmas colors
Overfowing Santa’s sack
This is only for white chilren
Not them un-damn-grateful blacks
Chorus
Merry christmas white children
On that blessed crhistmas morn
Wasn’t no Negro in the crowd there
When that li’l white boy was born
Merry Christmas white children
May all your dreams come true
Let them have they February
Cause December’s just for you
