Mama It's Christmas
I'd been working all day
Missed a call from your friend
She asked if you were okay
You hadn't shown up to your date
I picked up the phone
Woke my father from his sleep
Couldn't help but break down
He said, "Child, don't you weep
He'll be back before morning
It's not the first time he's done it this week"
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Where is my brother? Where is my friend?
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Doesn't he know I've got ribbons to wrap him in?
Mama, it's Christmas
You called me that night
Said, "Babe, don't you worry now"
All I could manage was I love you
But I should have reached through the phone
Slapped you hard on the cheek
So that you will know pain like I do when you leave
Oh, it's Christmastime again
Where is my brother? Where is my friend?
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Doesn't he know I've got ribbons to wrap him in?
Mama, it's Christmas
I'd been working all day
Missed a call from your friend
She asked if you were okay
Again
Boy, you could cry wolf year after year
Still I would not stop trying to fight off your fears
Is it drugs or religion keeping you here?
It's already getting to that time of the year
Oh, it's Christmastime again
Where are you, brother? Where are you, my friend?
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Doesn't he know I've got all my love to wrap him in?
Mama, it's Christmas
Mama, it's Christmas
Mama, it's Christmas
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Missed a call from your friend
She asked if you were okay
You hadn't shown up to your date
I picked up the phone
Woke my father from his sleep
Couldn't help but break down
He said, "Child, don't you weep
He'll be back before morning
It's not the first time he's done it this week"
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Where is my brother? Where is my friend?
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Doesn't he know I've got ribbons to wrap him in?
Mama, it's Christmas
You called me that night
Said, "Babe, don't you worry now"
All I could manage was I love you
But I should have reached through the phone
Slapped you hard on the cheek
So that you will know pain like I do when you leave
Oh, it's Christmastime again
Where is my brother? Where is my friend?
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Doesn't he know I've got ribbons to wrap him in?
Mama, it's Christmas
I'd been working all day
Missed a call from your friend
She asked if you were okay
Again
Boy, you could cry wolf year after year
Still I would not stop trying to fight off your fears
Is it drugs or religion keeping you here?
It's already getting to that time of the year
Oh, it's Christmastime again
Where are you, brother? Where are you, my friend?
Mama, it's Christmastime again
Doesn't he know I've got all my love to wrap him in?
Mama, it's Christmas
Mama, it's Christmas
Mama, it's Christmas
Mama, it's Christmastime again
