Merle Haggard Daddy Won't Be Home Again For Christmas

Tekst piosenki

[Chorus]
Daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
And I just hope that this little check will fit
Daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
But maybe this will serve to let you know I don’t forget

[Verse 1]
The Christmas tree where I’ll be won’t be lighted
But the rain cold will let me know December’s here
Forgive me for the letters I don’t answer
But I keep thinking I’ll be home again each year

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
I know Santa Claus won’t bring you all the things you need
But maybe he’ll be kinder if he knows
That I won’t be home this year to play the famous roll
And besides I’m much to thin to wear his cloths

[Chorus]
