"(Everybody's Waitin' for) The Man with the Bag" is a 1950 Christmas song. The "man with the bag" is a reference to Santa Claus, who drops off presents from his sleigh to people who have been "extra special good".
Lyrics[]
Old Mr. Kringle, is soon gonna jingle
The bells that'll tinkle all your troubles away
Ev'rybody's waitin' for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is comin' again
He's got a sleighful, it's not gonna stay full
He's got stuff to drop at ev'ry stop of the way
Ev'rybody's waitin' for the man with the bag
'Cause Christmas is comin' again
He'll be here with the answers to the prayers
That you've made through the year
You'll get yours if you've done ev'rything you should
Extra special good
He'll make this December, the one you'll remember
The best and the merriest you ever did have
Ev'rybody's waitin' for the man with the bag
Christmas is here again
Old Mr. Kringle, is soon gonna jingle
All the bells that'll tinkle all your troubles a way
Ev'rybody's waitin' for the man with the bag
Christmas is here again
He's got a sleighful and it's not gonna stay full
Got stuff that he's droppin' ev'ry stop of the way
Ev'rybody's waitin' for the man with the bag
Christmas is here again
He'll be here with the answer to the prayers
That you've made through the year
You'll get yours if you've done ev'rything you should
Extra special good
He'll make this December, the one you'll remember
The best and the merriest you ever did have
Ev'rybody's waitin', they're all congregatin'
Waitin' for the man with the bag
Better watch out ma'am
