Sunday Christmas Song Memories

The "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise"  prompt for Day 1013
You can't get a Christmas song out of your mind. Write the story behind the song.

I don't know the story behind this novelty Christmas song. I know that it made the billboard charts in 1955 when it was sung by a man. I posted Shirley Temples version of "I ain't gettin' nuttin' for Christmas" because it's sung by a girl whose voice sounds like a mischievous little girl. This is one of two songs that I can't get out of my mind at Christmas. The other song is "All I want for Christmas", the version I like was put out by Spike Jones. I like these two songs because they bring back fond Christmas memories about being at my grandparents' house on Christmas. Sometimes we didn't go to Grandma and Grandpa's on Christmas; however, the Christmases with my grandparents were the ones I enjoyed most.
