I was downtown Christmas shopping Such a busy city street I don't know how I noticed the piece of paper at my feet But somethin' made me pick it up, instead of goin' on my way I stopped and froze right in my tracks As I read what it had to say Oh Santa, if you can't find me We're livin' out here on the street But I'll be watchin' for you, you're not gonna forget me, are you Daddy says he knows you'll try But we might be too hard to find this year Oh Santa, I'm right here It said, we don't have our house no more, I wish we could go home Mama says we will some day and she prays it won't be long But they closed daddy's factory and took most of our things Now Santa, I don't need to much, so this year could you bring Bring my mom a coat that's warm, 'cause the one she's got is awful torn Maybe dad could help you work, makin' toys for boys and girls Oh Santa, if you can't find me We're livin' out here on the street But I'll be watchin' for you, you're not gonna forget me, are you Daddy says he knows you'll try But we might be too hard to find this year Oh Santa, I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here
