I was playin Santa Claus downtown on Christmas Eve When a little girl of three or four climbed up onto my knee I could tell she had a Christmas Wish behind those eyes of blue So I asked her what's your name, and what can Santa git for you She said my name is Christmas Carol, I was born on Christmas Day I dont know who my daddy is, and mommy's gone away All I want for Christmas is someone to take me home Does anybody want a Christmas Carol of their own Well all I could say was "Santa will do the best he could" And I set her down and told her "now to remember to be good" She said I will then walked away, turned and waved goodbye And Im glad she wasent close enough to see ole Santa Cry She said my name is Christmas Carol, I was born on Christmas Day I dont know who my daddy is, and mommy's gone away All I want for Christmas is someone to take me home Does anybody want a Christmas Carol of their own Early Christmas morning I got up and dialed the phone I made a few arrangements at the County Children's home And they told me it would be alright to pick her up today Now my little Christmas Carol won't ever have to say My name is Christmas Carol, I was born on Christmas Day I dont know who my daddy is, and mommy's gone away All I want for Christmas is someone to take me home Does anybody want a Christmas Carol of their own Well Merry Christmas Carol, I love you, Welcome Home
