Dad Will Be Home for ChristmasThis is another sad songbut it's got a happy endingand that's the way I like themI took my little boyto see old Santa Clausand then came our turn in lineand when Santa asked himwhat he wanted for ChristmasI heard him replyI want Daddy home for Christmas Daycause he drives a truckand he's always goneand Mom cries a lotwhen he's not home for Christmasso could you pleaseask my Dad to stay homeThen I began to realizehow wrong I'd been these last few yearsby working holidaysto make a little extra moneythat I didn't really needand I didn't know what I was doingto my wife and little boyand as we walked back toward homemy old heart began to acheThen the tears filled my eyesand my little boy looked up and saidWhat's wrong Dad?And I just smiled and saidNothing son, nothing's wrongEverything is just fine nowcause from now onDad will be home for ChristmasYes I'll be home for Christmasfor Christmas Dayand that old truckcan't just sit there all aloneand your Mama won't have to cry anymoreYes I'll be there for ChristmasYes son, your Dad will be homefor Christmas
