Waited all night for Santa Clause but he never showed
Mommy and Daddy were a sleeping while I watched it snow.
I stayed at the top of the stairs so I could see his face
But he never came down and out of our fireplace.
My momma and I baked him up some cookies to eat
Left a glass of milk to wash em down, oh what a treat.
I looked up at our clock, there on the wall
And I knew that Santa wasn't coming after all.
I knew that I hadn't been the best of kids
While I sat there wondering what it was that I did.
I just knew that he wasn't bringing any presents for me
And I sat there all night and cried myself to sleep.
How was it that I woke up in my own bed
When my brother yelled hey look sis, it's my new sled.
I upped and hurried right down the stairs
And saw all the presents that were laying there.
Santa left a letter, and here's what it said
I saw that you were sleeping so I tucked you in bed.
Thanks for the milk and cookies, my little friend
And I'll be stopping at your house next year again..
