It was almost Christmas time

And there I stood in another line

Trying to buy that last gift or two

Not really in the Christmas mood

Standin right in front of me was a

Little boy waiting anxiously

Pacin around like little boys do

And in his hands he held

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 beleive what I heard him say

Sir I wanna 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

These shoes will make her smile

Want her to look beautiful

If mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted penny's 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 said

Mama made Christmas good at our house though

Most years she just did without Tell me sir

What am I gonna do

Some how I gotta buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down

I just had to help him out

And I'll never forget the look on his face when he said

Mama's gonna look so great

Sir I wanna 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

These shoes will make her smile

Want her to look beautiful

If mama meets Jesus tonight

I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love

As he thanked me and ran out

I knew that God had sent that little boy

To remind me what Christmas is all about

Sir I wanna 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

These shoes will make her smile

Want her to look beautiful

If mama meets Jesus tonight

I want her to look beautiful

If mama meets Jesus tonight
