Fm Static - Christmas Shoes lyrics

It was almost Christmas time There I stood in another line Trying to buy the last gift or two Not really 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, were a pair of shoes And his clothes were worn and old He was dirty from head to toe And when it came his time to pay I couldn't believe what I heard him say Sir, I wanna buy these shoes for my momma 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 will make her smile And I, want her look beautiful if Momma 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 so frantically Then he turned and he looked at me He said Momma made Christmas good... At our house Though most years she just did without Tell me, Sir, what am I gonna do? Somehow I've got to buy these Christmas shoes! So I laid the money down; I just had to help him out I'll never forget the look on his face When he said Mommas gonna look so great! Sir, I wanna buy these shoes for my momma 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 will make her smile And I, want her look beautiful if Momma meets Jesus I knew that I got a glimpse of heavens love As he thanked me and ran out I knew that God had sent that little boy to remind me Just what Christmas is all about I got a glimpse of heavens love As he thanked me and ran out I knew that God had sent that little boy to remind me Just what Christmas is all about Sir, I wanna buy these shoes for my momma 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 will make her smile And I, want her look beautiful if Momma meets Jesus Wanna buy these shoes for my momma 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 will make her smile And I, want her look beautiful if Momma meets Jesus tonight
