Dearest Santa Lyrics

Would you listen and lend an ear
'Cause I only come around once a year
And this is for a very special cause
My name is Santa Claus
One Christmas Eve I visited a home
Where children lived who've no home of their own
And though I brought them gifts galore
This is what one asked me for

Dearest Santa I don't want toys
Or choo-choo trains with lots of noise
I want a home like other boys
Christmas day
Dearest Santa I will be
Just as good as I can be
If you'll give me a family
Christmas day

I'm so lonesome I'm so blue
Is there somethin' you can do
Oh, please dear Santa
Don't ignore this little boy who's begging for
A mother whom he'll just adore
Christmas day
I would be just so proud and glad
If I could just say meet my Dad
So, please dear Santa heed my quest
And tell them I'll behave my best
That if they take me they'll be blessed
Christmas day
