All I Want for Christmas Is My Daddy

(Buck Owens - Jimmy Snyder)



A little boy with tear dimmed eyes

With trembling lips he could not hide

Too young to undertsand

Why daddy said goodbye

Why, Christmas time is almost here

And daddy won't be home this year

The little boy looked up at mommy and he cried



All I want for Christmas is my daddy

To help me decorate the Christmas tree

Tell ol' Santa Claus forget about those presents

But don't forget to bring my daddy Christmas Eve



Mommy said if I'd be good

And say my prayers the way I should

Maybe God would help bring daddy back to us

For it won't seem like Christmas day

With my daddy far away

'Cause we miss him so and love him oh so much



All I want for Christmas is my daddy

To help me docorate the Christmas tree

Tell ol' Santa Claus forget about those presents

But don't forget to bring my daddy Christmas Eve



No, don't forget to bring my daddy Christmas Eve...
