Bill Anderson - Po` Folks Christmas слова песни




There`s a whole lotta people lookin` down their noses at meCause I didn`t come from a wealthy familyI guess I learned to take it for most of the yearBut every December when Christmas drew nearAnd all the other families were out spreadin` cheer we was sittin` home being po` folksOur Christmas shopping was thumblin` through the new catalogLookin` and a wishin` and a wantin` everything we sawLittle toy trains and little toy boats and sister kept lookin` at the little girl`s coatsWe all sat down and wrote Santa a note but Santa don`t come to see po` folksAnd we wadn`t nothing but po` folksPo` folks livin` way in the country we never heard the jingle of the jingle bellsHo ho ho we was po po po` and if we had Christmas well we just made it ourselvesDaddy took a hatchet and daddy chopped a pine tree downThe only decorations were the ones we made or foundBrother saw some holly in the rich men`s yard he picked it up fast and ran home hardAnd mama knew he stole it but bless her heart Christmas ain`t easy on po` folksAnd it ain`t no time for whipping po` folks[ dobro ]I remember one Christmas it was blowing and a snowing meanWadn`t nothing in the kitchen but a few of mama`s homecanned beansSome ladies from the church brought a basket of foodMama kinda smiled and she said that`s goodBut why don`t you all just take it to the folks that live down the roadThey ain`t got as much as we do huh why they`re just po` folksShe only kept a chicken and enough to make some homemade breadBut you`d`ve thought we was feastin` from the blessings that my daddy saidAnd later when kids was tucked in tightAnd the fire wadn`t nothin` but a flickering lightYou oughta heard my mama sing Silent NightCause that`s what you do when you`re po` folks and we wadn`t nothin` but po` folksChristmas time when you`re po` folksThe Lord sure must`ve loved us po` folks ha ha he made a passel of usEverybody 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
