"The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot" lyrics


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.

Spoken:
(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
another 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.
