With this sheet music, you can play "Santa Baby" on piano!

It's an accurate, playable arrangement of Eartha Kitt's famous 1953 recording, in the song's original key of Db major.

It comes with a few challenges, but sounds fantastic!

The full melody is included in the piano part, so it makes for a perfect instrumental (piano solo) cover.

Written by Joan Javits and Philip Springer, Eartha Kitt recorded the song with Henri Ren� and his orchestra. After its release in October 1953, it became the best-selling Christmas song of that year!

The song's suggestive lyrics and sexual undertone were considered quite controversial (the song was even banned for some time in the American South), and "Santa Baby" has been named both one of the best and one of the worst Christmas songs ever written...

Still, the song has become a famous holiday hit, and has been recorded by many artists, including Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Michael Bubl�, Robbie Williams, Ariana Grande, Gwen Stefani, Taylor Swift, and many others.

Many consider Eartha Kitt's original recording to be the greatest version of the song - it certainly makes for a fantastic piano cover!

Here are the song's full lyrics:

Santa baby, just slip a sable under the tree
For me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, a 54 convertible too
Light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you'll check off my Christmas list

Santa baby, I wanna yacht
And really that's not a lot
Been an angel all year
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa honey, one little thing I really need
The deed
To a platinum mine
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex
And checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing
A ring
I don't mean on the phone
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry, tonight
