Christmas cookies

I sure do like those Christmas cookies, sugar
I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe
The ones that look like Santa Claus
Christmas trees, and bells, and stars
I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe

Now Christmas cookies are a special treat
The more I bake the more I eat
And sometimes I can't get myself to stop
Sometimes I'll wait 'til he's asleep
And I'll take the ones that he didn't eat
And I'll put those little sprinkly things on the top

I sure do like those Christmas cookies, sugar
Well, I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe
The ones that look like Santa Claus
Christmas trees, and bells, and stars
I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe

Those sprinkly things just make things worse
'Cause it makes them taste better than they did at first
And they're absolutely impossible to resist
And some disappear to who knows where
Well I make dang sure that I'll get my share
And the dogs just stand there waiting for the ones I missed

I sure do like those Christmas cookies, sugar
Well, I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe
He gets mad that they're all gone
Before I get the icing put on
I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe

Now there's a benefit to all of this
That you might have overlooked or missed
So now let me tell you the best part of it all
Every time I stick another batch in the oven
There's fifteen minutes for some kissin' and'a huggin'
That's why I eat Christmas cookies all year long, yeah

Take it away, boys

That's why I eat Christmas cookies all year long

I sure do like those Christmas cookies, sugar
Well, I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe
The ones that look like Santa Claus
Christmas trees, and bells, and stars
I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe
(Those cookies, I like those cookies)
Well, I sure do like those Christmas cookies, babe
