I was just a little boy when daddy
walked into the room on Christmas night
Holding all those special presents in
his arms that he wrapped up so nice
Daddy always seemed to come around on
Christmas day just like old Santa Claus
And we'd open up our presents with
our daddy but I knew he'd soon be gone
Daddy seemed to find another life,
another place somewhere with someone new
And I always wondered why my mama
wasn't there inside that living room
Well my little
brother's eyes would start to glow meeting daddy behind the door
But
I always wondered if he understood daddy don't need us anymore
No I don't come from a family that shares the Christmas love and joy
Cause my daddy he walked down on me when I was a little boy
So
make yourself a Christmas list and remember to put daddy on the top
Cause you know he's got that special
kind of love that's never gonna stop
And on that Christmas day when you're
giving him that special gift you found
Just put him in your arms and thank
the Lord that your daddy's still around
No I don't come from a family that shares the Christmas love and joy
Cause my daddy he walked down on me when I was a little boy
No my daddy he walked down on me and now he's nowhere to be found
So count your blessings every Christmas
Eve that your daddy's still around
So count your blessings every Christmas
Eve that your daddy's still around
