Christmas Shoes

Christmas Shoes - Fm Static

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

Momma meets Jesus tonight

Momma meets Jesus tonight
