Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not (3)____________ in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty (4)________ head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these (5)__________ (6)__________ make her smile
And I (7)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the (8)______________ said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though (9)________ (10)__________ she just did without
Tell me Sir, (11)________ am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to (12)________ him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I (13)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these (14)__________ are (15)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been (16)________ for quite a while
And I (17)________ these shoes would (18)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

As he thanked me and ran out
I (19)________ (20)________ God had sent that little boy
To (21)____________ me (22)________ Christmas is all about


Sir, I (23)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
