I was downtown Christmas shopping
Such a busy city street
I don`t know how I noticed the piece of paper at my feet
But somethin` made me pick it up, instead of goin` on my way
I stopped and froze right in my tracks
As I read what it had to say
Oh Santa, if you can`t find me
We`re livin` out here on the street
But I`ll be watchin` for you, you`re not gonna forget me, are you
Daddy says he knows you`ll try
But we might be too hard to find this year
Oh Santa, I`m right here
It said, we don`t have our house no more, I wish we could go home
Mama says we will some day and she prays it won`t be long
But they closed daddy`s factory and took most of our things
Now Santa, I don`t need to much, so this year could you bring
Bring my mom a coat that`s warm, `cause the one she`s got is awful torn
Maybe dad could help you work, makin` toys for boys and girls
Oh Santa, if you can`t find me
We`re livin` out here on the street
But I`ll be watchin` for you, you`re not gonna forget me, are you
Daddy says he knows you`ll try
But we might be too hard to find this year
Oh Santa, I`m right here
I`m right here
I`m right here
