| He’s the little boy that Santa Claus forgot
|
| And goodness knows he didn’t want a lot
|
| He sent a note to Santa
|
| For some soldiers and a drum
|
| It broke his little heart
|
| When he found Santa hadn’t come
|
| In the street he envies all those lucky boys
|
| Then wanders home to last year’s broken toys
|
| I’m so sorry for that laddie
|
| He hasn’t got a daddy
|
| The little boy that Santa Claus forgot
|
| You know, Christmas comes but once a year for every girl and boy
|
| The laughter and the joy, they find in each brand new toy
|
| I’ll tell you of a little boy that lives across the way
|
| This little fella’s Christmas is just like any other day
|
| He’s the little boy that Santa Claus forgot
|
| And goodness knows, he didn’t want a lot
|
| In the street he envies all those lucky boys
|
| Then wanders home to last year’s broken toys
|
| I’m so sorry for that laddie
|
| He hasn’t got a daddy
|
| The little boy that Santa Claus forgot |
