about

A big part of my experience of the Jersey Shore has been as a dad. The experience raising a child with the wonders the Garden State has to offer has influenced the music I've created for kids and families - the Jungle Gym Jam. This song "Summertime Santa" captures that Jersey Shore sound while telling a story of the legendary gift giver and his Jersey connection.

lyrics

What does Santa do in the summertime
When there are waves to surf in the warm sunshine?
Does he kick off his tall black winter boots
And put on a red and white bathing suit?
Does he play skee ball in the boardwalk arcade
And go with Mrs. Claus for a walk in the shade?

Chorus:
Summertime Santa down the shore
Serving up treats in the ice cream store
Riding around on his bicycle
Away from the arctic icicles
Summertime Santa, Summertime Santa
I'm glad you're on vacation with me

What does Santa do on a summer day?
Does he fly with a banner behind his sleigh
To remind the kids to share their beach toys
Does he play volleyball with nice girls and boys?
Does he hang up his big red winter coat
And take time to unwind on his fishing boat

Chorus

The crashing waves sound wonderful
When mixed with Santa’s bells
And the merry sounds of laughter ‘round the carousel

Chorus
