| Daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
|
| But I just hope that this little check will fit
|
| Daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
|
| Maybe this will serve to let you know I don’t forget
|
| The Christmas tree, where I’ll be, won’t be lighted
|
| But the rain and cold will let us know December’s here
|
| Forgive me for the letters I don’t answer
|
| But I keep thinking I’ll be home again each year
|
| But daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
|
| Here’s hoping that this little check will fit
|
| Daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
|
| Maybe this will serve to let you know I don’t forget
|
| I know Santa Claus won’t bring you all the things you need
|
| Maybe he will be kinder if he knows
|
| That I won’t be home again this year to play his role
|
| Besides I must fit in to wear his clothes
|
| Daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
|
| But here’s hoping that this little check will fit
|
| No, daddy won’t be home again for Christmas
|
| But maybe this will serve to let you know I don’t forget |
