’Zat You, Santa Claus? ist ein Weihnachtslied, das Jack Fox (* 1921; Musik und Text) schrieb und im Dezember 1953 im Musikverlag Broude Bros. veröffentlichte.

Der Song ’Zat You, Santa Claus? wurde am 22. Oktober 1953 von Louis Armstrong and The Commanders aufgenommen und im Dezember 1953 auf Decca Records veröffentlicht (Decca 9-28943); in dem Studioorchester unter Leitung von Toots Camarata (von dem auch das Bigband-Arrangement stammte) spielten u. a. Billy Butterfield, Lou McGarity, Cutty Cutshall, Hymie Schertzer, Al Klink, Bernie Leighton, Carmen Mastren, Sandy Block und Ed Grady.

Der Song wurde in den folgenden Jahren auch von Bing Crosby, Benny Green, Rebecca Kilgore, Buster Poindexter, Harry Connick, Jr. und René Marie (mit dem Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra und Wynton Marsalis, 2014) gecovert. Garth Brooks interpretiert den Song in dem Spielfilm Nenn’ mich einfach Nikolaus (2001).

'Zat You, Santa Claus? Lyrics
Louis Armstrong

Gifts I'm preparing
For some Christmas sharing
But I pause because
Hanging my stocking
I can hear a knocking
'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Sure is dark out
Ain't the slightest spark out
'Pon my slackened jaw
Who's there?
Who is it?
Stopping for a visit?
'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Are you bringing
A present for me
Something pleasantly
Pleasant for me?
Then it's just
What I've been waiting for
Would you mind
Slipping it under the door?
Cold winds are howling
Or could that be growling?
My legs feel like straws
My, my, oh, me, my
Kindly would you reply?
'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Yes, hanging the stocking
I can hear a knocking
'Zat you, Santa Claus?
I say, who's there
Who is it?
Are you stopping
For a visit?
'Zat you, Santa Claus?
