Текст (слова) песни: Bill Anderson - Po` Folks Christmas



There`s a whole lotta people lookin` down their noses at me
Cause I didn`t come from a wealthy family
I guess I learned to take it for most of the year
But every December when Christmas drew near
And all the other families were out spreadin` cheer we was sittin` home being po` folks
Our Christmas shopping was thumblin` through the new catalog
Lookin` and a wishin` and a wantin` everything we saw
Little toy trains and little toy boats and sister kept lookin` at the little girl`s coats
We all sat down and wrote Santa a note but Santa don`t come to see po` folks
And we wadn`t nothing but po` folks
Po` folks livin` way in the country we never heard the jingle of the jingle bells
Ho ho ho we was po po po` and if we had Christmas well we just made it ourselves
Daddy took a hatchet and daddy chopped a pine tree down
The only decorations were the ones we made or found
Brother saw some holly in the rich men`s yard he picked it up fast and ran home hard
And mama knew he stole it but bless her heart Christmas ain`t easy on po` folks
And it ain`t no time for whipping po` folks
[ dobro ]
I remember one Christmas it was blowing and a snowing mean
Wadn`t nothing in the kitchen but a few of mama`s homecanned beans
Some ladies from the church brought a basket of food
Mama kinda smiled and she said that`s good
But why don`t you all just take it to the folks that live down the road
They ain`t got as much as we do huh why they`re just po` folks
She only kept a chicken and enough to make some homemade bread
But you`d`ve thought we was feastin` from the blessings that my daddy said
And later when kids was tucked in tight
And the fire wadn`t nothin` but a flickering light
You oughta heard my mama sing Silent Night
Cause that`s what you do when you`re po` folks and we wadn`t nothin` but po` folks
Christmas time when you`re po` folks
The Lord sure must`ve loved us po` folks ha ha he made a passel of us
Everybody at my house was po` folks why most of the time we was po`
We couldn`t even pay attention mercy Christmas time when you`re po` folks
