It was almost christmas time
There i stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two
Not really in the christmas mood

Standing right in front of me was
A little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And his clothes were worn and old
He was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what i heard him say

Sir i want to buy these shoes for my mama please
It's christmas eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And i know these shoes would make her smile
And i want her to look beautiful if mama meets jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said "son there's not enough here"
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me

He said "mama made christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without"
Tell me sir what am i going to do
Somehow i've got to buy her these christmas shoes

So i laid the money down i just had to help him out
And i'll never forget the look on his face when he said
"mama's gonna look so great"

Sir i want to buy these shoes for my mama please
It's christmas eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And i know these shoes would make her smile
And i want her to look beautiful if mama meets jesus tonight

I knew i'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that god had sent that little boy
To remind me what christmas is all about

Sir i want to buy these shoes for my mama please
It's christmas eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And i know these shoes would make her smile
And i want her to look beautiful if mama meets jesus tonight

I want her to look beautiful
If mama meets jesus tonight
