Have you ever wondered why Santa Claus wears red and white?
00:07
It's because he's a Sutherland fan and not a black and white.
00:11
Well, I know Santa personally, he's a very good friend of mine.
00:15
He's born by the River Weir and he went by the River Tyne.
00:19
Now Santa Claus has got white hair and a beard silvery long.
00:23
He holds a Sutherland season ticket and he sings all day long.
00:27
He's a pure Sutherland fan, Chris Kringle is his name.
00:31
He's a Mackham lad from a Mackham town and he is his name.
00:34
Here we go!

Oh, red and white toots around the Christmas tree.

00:48
That's a Mackham Christmas, that's for sure.
00:51
Now even though Santa Claus is a Sutherland fan,
00:55
He would never ever discriminate for he's an honest man.
00:59
No matter if you're black and white, Chelsea or Man U,
01:03
He'll arrive on the 25th to leave a gift for you.
01:07
Oh, red and white toots around the Christmas tree.

01:18
Uncles have too much to drink, but not as much as Aunt Mary on the floor.
01:23
Now and now you know that Santa Claus is a Sutherland fan.
01:27
Always hold for red and white to distress if you can.
01:31
Dinner just to walk on by because he's red and white.
01:35
Because you may believe in Santa Claus riding.
