Pacing 'round (2)________ little (3)________ do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from (4)________ to toe

I couldn't (6)______________ what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (7)__________________ 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 (8)__________ a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I (9)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He (10)________ Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years 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 help him out
I'll never forget the look on his (12)________ when he said

Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (14)__________ a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to (15)________ (16)__________________ if Mama meets (17)__________ tonight
