    Verse 1
    It was December 

    24th on 
    Hollis 
    Ave 
    in the dark 

    When 
    I see 
    a man 
    chilling 

    with his 
    dog 
    in the park 

    I 
    approached 
    very 
    slowly 
    with my 

    heart full 
    of fear 

    Looked at 
    his dog, 

    oh my 
    God, 
    an ill 
    reindeer 

    Verse 2
    But 
    then 
    I 
    was 
    illin' 'cause the 

    man 
    had a beard 

    And a 
    bag 
    full of 
    goodies, 

    twelve 
    'o'clock 
    had neared 

    So 
    I 
    turned my 
    head a 
    second 

    and the 
    man 
    was gone 

    But 
    he left his 
    driver's 
    wallet 

    smack 
    dead 
    on the lawn 

    Verse 3
    I 
    picket the 
    wallet 
    up 
    then 
    I took 
    a pause 

    Took 
    out the 
    license 
    and 

    it cold 
    said 
    "Santa 
    Claus" 

    A 
    million 
    dollars 
    in it, 

    cold 
    hundreds 
    of G's 

    Enough to 
    buy a 
    boat and 

    matching 
    car 
    with 
    ease 

    Verse 4
    But I'd 
    never 
    steal from 
    Santa, 

    'cause that 
    ain't right 

    I was 
    going 
    home to 
    mail 

    it back to 
    him 
    that night 

    But 
    when I 
    got 
    home 
    I bugged, 

    'cause 
    under 
    the tree 

    Was 
    a letter 
    from 
    Santa 
    and all 

    Verse 5
    the dough was 
    for me 


    It's 
    Christmas 
    time 
    in 
    Hollis, 
    Queens 

    Mom's 
    cooking 
    chicken 

    and 
    collard 
    greens 

    Rice 
    and stuffing, 
    macaroni 
    and cheese 

    And 
    Santa 
    put 
    gifts 
    under 

    Verse 6
    Christmas 
    trees 

    Decorate 
    the 
    house 
    with 

    lights 
    at night 

    Snow's 
    on the 
    ground, 

    snow 
    white 
    so bright 

    In the 
    fireplace 
    is the 
    yule 
    log 

    Beneath 
    the 
    mistletoe 
    as we 
    drink 
    eggnog 

    Verse 7
    The 
    rhymes 
    that 
    you hear 
    are the 

    rhymes 
    of Darryl's 

    But each 
    and every 
    year we 
    bust 
    Christmas 

    carols (Christmas carols) 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 8

    Rhymes 
    so 
    loud 
    and proud 
    you 
    hear 
    it 

    It's 
    Christmas 
    time 
    and 
    we 
    got 
    the spirit 

    Jack 
    Frost 
    chillin', 
    the 
    orchid's out 

    And 
    that's 
    what 
    Christmas 
    is 
    all 
    about 

    Verse 9
    The 
    time 
    is now, 
    the 
    place 
    is 
    here 

    And the 
    whole 
    wide 
    world 

    is filled 
    with 
    cheer 

    Verse 10
    My 
    name's 
    D.M.C. with the 

    mic 
    in my hand 

    And I'm 
    chilling 
    and 
    coolin' 

    just 
    like a 
    snowman 

    So 
    open 
    your eyes, 
    lend 
    us 
    an ear 

    We 
    want to 
    say 
    Merry 
    Christmas 

    Outro 1
    and Happy 
    New 
    Year

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
