What would I give for just a few moments What would I give just to have you near Tell me you would try to slip away somehow Oh I need you darling I want to see you right now Can you slip away, slip away Slip away, oh I need you so Oh love oh love, how sweet it is When you still involve it Let me tell you how sweet it is Now I know it's wrong, The things I ask you to do But please believe me darling I don't mean to hurt you But can you slip away Without him knowin you're gone Baby we could meet somewhere, Somewhere we both are not known Can you slip away, slip away, Slip away-ay-ay-ay I need you so Oh can you slip away baby I'd like to see you right now darling Can you slip away baby Cause I got to, got to see you I feel a deep burning inside Oh I wish you could slip away...
Down by the river that flows by the coal yards. Stands wooden houses with shutters torn down There lives a girl everybody calls Patches Patches my darling of Old Shanty town
We plan to marry when June brought the summer I couldn't wait to make Patches my bride Now I don't see how that ever can happen My folks say No, and my heart breaks inside
Patches oh what can I do I swear I'll always love you But a girl from that place would just bring me disgrace So my folks won't let me love you
Each night I cry as I think of that shanty And pretty Patches there watching the door She dosn't know that I can't come to see her Patches must think that I love her no more
I hear a neighbor tellin my father He said a girl name of Patches was found Floating face down in that dirty old river That flows by the coal yards in Old Shanty Town
Patches oh what can I do I swear I'll always love you It may not be right But I'll join you tonight Patches I'm coming to you.
They call me Back Door Santa I make my runs about the break of day They call me Back Door Santa I make my runs about the break of day Oh ho ho I make all the little girls happy While the boys are out to play
I ain't like the old Saint Nick He don't come but once a year Oh ho ho ho I ain't like the old Saint Nick He don't come but once a year I come runnin' with my presents Every time you call me dear
I keep some change in my pocket, in case the children are home I give 'em a few pennies so that we can be alone I leave the back door open so if anybody smells a mouse And wouldn't old Santa be in trouble if there ain't no chimney in the house
They call me Back Door Santa I make my runs about the break of day I make all the little girls happy While the boys are out to play
That's what they call me, Back Door Santa That's what they call me The call me Back Door Santa That's what all the girls call me
I give 'em all little presents That's what the call me They call me Back Door Santa And I like for them to call me that The call me Back Door Santa And I like it and I like it and I like it
How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me girl
How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back That's what I wanna know right now girl
How you expect for me to get it When you keep on, doing like that
You want me, and I want you But you're afraid, that I won't be true I get your love, in the palm of my hand You change your mind, and snatch it back again
So tell me How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back Oh, you wanna tell me now, girl
How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back That's what I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know
How you expect for me to get it When you keep on, doing like that
Some other man, before my time Must have loved you, and left you behind
Now you're afraid, that I'll hurt you But I won't do anything, you don't want me to
So tell me How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back Oh, I wanna know right now, right now girl
How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back You don't have to do me like that, baby
I wanna do How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back Oh you know I love you baby
How can I get your love When you keep on snatching it back {fade}
What would I give for just a few moments What would I give just to have you near Tell me you would try to slip away somehow Oh I need you darling I want to see you right now Can you slip away, slip away Slip away, oh I need you so.
Love, oh love, how sweet it is When you steal love, Let me tell you how sweet it is...
