(dwight yoakam)
Cold tears fall from his eyes
As he turns into the night and walks away
Lucille runs outside
Just to see if there might be a sleigh
Little bobby stares down
At the plate where cookies still lay
And tries to understand
Why momma said santa can't stay
Chorus:
Momma said santa can't stay
Said she told him that twice yesterday
Then a car just like dad's
Pulled out and drove away
After momma said santa couldn't stay
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/d/dwight+yoakam/santa+cant+stay_20044115.html ]
They both heard him coming
Saw mom run down the hall and holler wait
Doug you're drunk don't come inside
I'm not joking I've had all this I can take
He threw a present really hard
That almost hit mom's new boyfriend ray
And yelled ho-ho lucky for you she's here
And said that santa can't stay
Chorus:
Momma said santa can't stay
Said she told him that twice yesterday
Then a car just like dad's
Pulled out and drove away
After momma said santa couldn't stay
