《The Christmas Shoes》歌词

[00:00:00] The Christmas Shoes (圣诞鞋) - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)

[00:00:08] It was almost Christmas time,

[00:00:12] There I stood in another line

[00:00:15] Tryin' to buy that last gift or two,

[00:00:19] Not really in the Christmas mood

[00:00:22] Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously

[00:00:30] Pacing 'round like little boys do

[00:00:33] And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

[00:00:40] His clothes were worn and old,

[00:00:43] He was dirty from head to toe

[00:00:48] And when it came his time to pay

[00:00:52] I couldn't believe what I heard him say

[00:00:56] Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please

[00:01:04] It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size

[00:01:11] Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time

[00:01:18] You see she's been sick for quite a while

[00:01:23] And I know these shoes would make her smile

[00:01:26] And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

[00:01:39] He counted pennies for what seemed like years

[00:01:42] Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"

[00:01:46] He searched his pockets frantically

[00:01:50] Then he turned and he looked at me

[00:01:53] He said Mama made Christmas good at our house

[00:01:57] Though most years she just did without

[00:02:00] Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,

[00:02:03] Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

[00:02:11] So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out

[00:02:18] I'll never forget the look on his face when he said

[00:02:22] Mama's gonna look so great

[00:02:27] Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please

[00:02:34] It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size

[00:02:41] Could you hurry, sir,

[00:02:45] Daddy says there's not much time

[00:02:50] You see she's been sick for quite a while

[00:02:53] And I know these shoes would make her smile

[00:02:55] And I want her to look beautiful if

[00:03:00] Mama meets Jesus tonight

[00:03:07] I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love

[00:03:11] As he thanked me and ran out

[00:03:14] I knew that God had sent that little boy

[00:03:17] To remind me just what Christmas is all about.

[00:03:27] Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my mama, please

[00:03:34] If mama meets Jesus tonight
