Christmas Shoes Lyrics

it was almost christmas time
there i stood in another line
tryin to buy that last gift for two
not really in the christmas mood
standing in front of me
was a boy waiting anxiously
pacing around like little boys do
and in his hand he held
a pair of shoes

and his clothes were torn and old
he was dirty from head to toeDoug Stone - Christmas Shoes - http://motolyrics.com/doug-stone/christmas-shoes-lyrics.html
and when it came his time to pay
i couldnt believe what i heard him say

sir i wanna buy these shoes, for my momma please
its christmas eve and these shoes are just her size
could you hurry sir?
daddy says theres 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 to look beautiful
if momma meets jesus tonight
