Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

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
(Do you mind if I sing one time?)
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year

I say it's happy because birds are tweeting
The sun is shining, the wind's blowing, the breeze
The leaves are flying, everybody feels nice
Just say, oh God, thanks for all the 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
(One more time, I want you to sing one more time)
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
(Let's make it look alright)

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, 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 good 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
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
Let's make this Christmas mean something this year
