About This Item
New York, NY: Schumann Music Corp., 1955, 1966, 1966. Sheet music. Good. Soft cover. approx. 30 copies ; SATB ; S1033 ; "The text of this song is based on an old, but delightful Christmas custom among both negroes and whites in the south eastern and southern stsates. Early on Christmas morning, friend (A) would visit friend B's house and knock on his door. Then he would step aside, so that he would not be seen when friend (B) opened the door. As soon as the door was opened, (A) would jump out at his friend (B) and shout, "Christmas gift". Mr. (B), on the other hand, would be expecting just that and so, he would try to beat his friend to the punch. Whoever said "Christmas gift" first was entitled to receive a present from the other. I have even seen one knock on the front door, then run around the house and come into his friend's back door in order to catch him unaware." .
