Intro: A E B7 E B7 E

I’m just an old fashioned girl with an old fashioned mind
Not sophisticated, I’m the plain and simple kind
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire

I’d like a plain simple car, a cerise Cadillac,
Long enough to have a bowling alley in the back
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire

I’ll stay weaving at my loom,
Be no trouble to my groom,
If he’ll keep the piles of money mounting
In our cottage there will be
A soundproof nursery
Not to wake the baby while I’m counting

I like the old fashioned flowers, violets are for me
Have them made in diamonds by the man at Tiffany
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire

Interlude: A E B7 E B7 E

I’m just a pilgrim at heart, oh so pure and genteel
Catch me in Las Vegas when I’m at the spinning wheel
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire

I’ll ask for such simple things when my birthday occurs
Two appartment buildings that are labelled Hers and Hers
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire

I like Chopin and Bizet
And the songs of yesterday,
String quartets and Polynesian carols
But the music that excels
Is the sound of oil wells
As they slurp, slurp, slurp into the barrels

My little home will be quaint as an old parasol,
And instead of carpets I’ll have money wall to wall
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire

Outro: A E B7 E B7 E

Santa Baby, just slip a sable under the tree for me;

Been an awful good girl, Santa Baby,

So hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight[Bm7-5]

Santa baby, a ’54 convertible too — light blue.

I’ll wait up for you, dear Santa baby,

So hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight

Bridge:

Think of all the fun I’ve missed,

Think of all the fellas that I haven’t kissed;

Next year I could be just as good

If you’ll check off my Christmas list.

Santa Baby, I want a yacht and really that’s not a lot

Been an angel all year, Santa Baby,

So hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/eartha_kitt/santa_baby_crd.html )

Santa honey, one little thing I really need — the deed

To a platinum mine, Santa Baby,
So hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight. [Bm7-5]

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and checks

Sign your ‘x’ on the line, Santa cutie,

So hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight[-]

Bridge 2:

Come and trim my Christmas tree

With some decorations bought at Tif-fa-ny

I really do believe in you —

Let’s see if you believe in me

Santa Baby, forgot to mention one little thing — a ring

I don’t mean on the phone, Santa Baby,

So hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight.[-]

Coda:

Hurry [G/F#]down the chimney tonight,

Hurry…tonight.
