Karaoké I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas Kacey Musgraves

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

I don't want a doll no dinky tinker toy

I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you

He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue

Just bring him through the front door that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on

Christmas morning creeping down the stairs

Oh what a joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes to see my hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles or rhinoceroses

I only like hippopotamuses

And hippopotamuses like me too

Ffooh ffooh ffooh ffooh ffooh ffooh ffooh ffooh ffooh

Mom says the hippo would eat me up but then my teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian

There's lots of room for him in our two car garage

I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage

I can see me now on

Christmas morning creeping down the stairs

Oh what a joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes to see my hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles nor rhinoceroses-es

I only like hippopotamuses-es

And hippopotamuses like me too
