It was almost Christmas time, there I (1)__________ in another line

Pacing 'round (4)________ little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes (5)________ (6)________ and old, he was dirty (7)________ head to toe

I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I (8)________ 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 shoes would make her smile
And I (9)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He (10)______________ pennies for what seemed (11)________ 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 said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, (12)________ am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the (13)__________ down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said

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

To (21)____________ me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
