lyrics

I'd been working all day
Missed a call from your friend
She asked if you were okay
You hadn't shown up to your date

I picked up the phone
Woke my father from his sleep
Couldn't help but break down

He said child don't you weep
He'll be back before morning
It's not the first time he’s done it this week

Mama it's Christmas time again
Where is my brother
Where is my friend
Mama it's Christmas time, again
Doesn't he know I've got ribbons to wrap him in

Mama it’s Christmas

You called me that night
Said babe don't you worry now
All I could manage was I love you

But I should have reached through the phone
Slapped you hard on the cheek
So that you could know pain like I do when you leave

Oh it's Christmas time again
Where is my brother
Where is my friend
Mama it's Christmas time, again
Doesn't he know I've got ribbons to wrap him in

Mama it’s Christmas

I'd been working all day
Missed a call from your friend
She asked if you were okay
Again

Boy you could cry wolf, year after year
Still I would not stop trying to fight off your fears Is it drugs or religion keeping you here
It's already getting to that time of the year

Oh it's Christmas time again
Where are you brother
Where are you my friend
Mama it's Christmas time again
Doesn't he know I've got all my love to wrap him in

Mama it's Christmas
Mama it's Christmas
Mama it's Christmas
Mama it's Christmas time again
