Lyrics Christmas In Hollis

It was December twenty fourth on Hollis Ave in the dark
When I see the man chilling with his dog in the park
I approached them very slowly with my heart full of fear
Looked at his dog
Oh my God
An ill reindeer
But then I was illin 'cos the man had a beard
And a bag full of goodies
Twelve o'clock had neared
So I turned my head a second and the man was gone
But he left and dropped his wallet smack dead on the lawn
I picked the wallet up and then I took a pause
Took out the license and it cold said "Santa Claus"
A million dollars in it
Cold hundreds of G's
Enough to buy a boat and matching car with ease
But I'd never steal from Santa
'Cos that ain't right
So I'm going home to mail it back to him that night
But when I got home I bugged
'Cos under the tree was a letter from Santa and the dough was for me
It's Christmas time in Hollis Queens
Mom's cooking chicken and collard greens
Rice and stuffing macaroni and cheese
And Santa put gifts under Christmas trees
Decorate the house with lights at night
Snow's on the ground snow white so bright
In the fireplace is the Yule log
Beneath the mistletoe as we drink egg-nog
The rhymes that you hear are the rhymes of Darryl's
But each and every year we bust Christmas carols
Rhymes so loud and proud
You hear it
It's Christmas time and we got the spirit
Jack Frost chillin'
The hawk is out
And that's what Christmas is all about
The time is now
The place is here
And the whole wide world is filled with cheer
My name is D.M.C. with the mic in my hand
And I'm chilling and coolin' just like a snowman
So open your eyes
Lend us an ear
We want to say
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
