I’ve Been Good (Merry Christmas, Baby) © M. Bullette 2021
Merry Christmas, baby,
I have just written “Dear”
And your name and a comma
On a card full of cheer
I signed it “love, from your baby”
I just need your new address
And a stamp that says forever
You used to say “forever and a day”
I’ve been good
I’ve been nice
Done what I should
Merry Christmas, baby
Sorry I was bad
What’s one day in forever
With all that we had?
I’ve been good
I’ve been nice
Don’t think twice
Could I come to see you (I’ve been good)
On Christmas Day or Eve (I’ve been nice)
One day in forever (I’ve been good)
You used to say forever and a day
I’ve been good
I’ve been nice
I wish you could
Give me one day
