Current song lyrics
There's a whole lotta people lookin' down their noses at me<br />Cause I didn't come from a wealthy family<br />I guess I learned to take it for most of the year<br />But every December when Christmas drew near<br />And all the other families were out spreadin' cheer we was sittin' home being po' folks<br />Our Christmas shopping was thumblin' through the new catalog<br />Lookin' and a wishin' and a wantin' everything we saw<br />Little toy trains and little toy boats and sister kept lookin' at the little girl's coats<br />We all sat down and wrote Santa a note but Santa don't come to see po' folks<br />And we wadn't nothing but po' folks<br />Po' folks livin' way in the country we never heard the jingle of the jingle bells<br />Ho ho ho we was po po po' and if we had Christmas well we just made it ourselves<br />Daddy took a hatchet and daddy chopped a pine tree down<br />The only decorations were the ones we made or found<br />Brother saw some holly in the rich men's yard he picked it up fast and ran home hard<br />And mama knew he stole it but bless her heart Christmas ain't easy on po' folks<br />And it ain't no time for whipping po' folks<br />[ dobro ]<br />I remember one Christmas it was blowing and a snowing mean<br />Wadn't nothing in the kitchen but a few of mama's homecanned beans<br />Some ladies from the church brought a basket of food<br />Mama kinda smiled and she said that's good<br />But why don't you all just take it to the folks that live down the road<br />They ain't got as much as we do huh why they're just po' folks<br />She only kept a chicken and enough to make some homemade bread<br />But you'd've thought we was feastin' from the blessings that my daddy said<br />And later when kids was tucked in tight<br />And the fire wadn't nothin' but a flickering light<br />You oughta heard my mama sing Silent Night<br />Cause that's what you do when you're po' folks and we wadn't nothin' but po' folks<br />Christmas time when you're po' folks<br />The Lord sure must've loved us po' folks ha ha he made a passel of us<br />Everybody at my house was po' folks why most of the time we was po' <br />We couldn't even pay attention mercy Christmas time when you're po' folks
