Let's Make Christmas Mean Something This Year (James Brown)

Hi everybody, this is James Brown
This is a very, very unusual way to come to you

But I gotta start by saying thanks
Thanks for such a wonderful year

Not only to you, to God, number one
To you number two and for all
the wonderful things
You know when I look at a beautiful day
I'll say God is there

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

I say it's happy because birds are tweeting

Sun is shining, the wind's blowing the breeze
The leaves are flying, everybody feels nice

Just say, oh God,thanks for all His wonderful things

You even see a little snow sometimes but you know,
God only knows how Christmas is gonna look,
So one more time I'll say

 Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Now let's make our next year
be as nice as this year
Now Christmas gotta be
the kind of a Christmas
That we remember
a long time ago

You remember
when everybody used
to look forward to it,
Santa Claus You'd wanna know
what you gonna have the next day

You couldn't wait until Christmas morning
to jump up

But that's the morning you wouldn't go
to your table
You go straight to your little sack

Hanging on the mantle over
the fireplace

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

You know I just enjoy this and I,
I can't really can't find enough words
That would really make me express myself
The good feelings that I have

But I wanna say thanks, thanks to God and now
Let's make Christmas the kind of a Christmas
that we'd remember

You know, you made Christmas very,
very beautiful for me In my past years
but let's make this Christmas 

Beautiful for everybody the kind of a Christmas
that mom, dad, granddad

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year

Let's make this Christmas
mean something this year
