Mama, words can't express

How I feel about you

Especially at this Christmastime

You went out of your way,

Thoughtful gifts that you gave

A love of giving, you passed on to us



Christmastime, Lord I love you

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair

Christmastime, oh I miss you

I still see you in that old rockin' chair



You were always there for me

Through all of your life

I still miss our telephone calls

The jokes that you told

And the laughter we shared

Oh Lord, that's what I miss the most



Christmastime, Lord I love you

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair

Christmastime, oh I miss you

Sittin' in that old rockin' chair



Bridge:

Lord, keep her safe in your arms

Right where she belongs

'Cause I know she's in heaven

Mama, you're finally home

Oh, you're finally home



Christmastime, Lord I love you

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair

Christmastime, oh I miss you

Sittin' in that old rockin' chair



I still see you in that old rockin' chair



Merry Christmas

Always know that I'm thinking of you

Merry Christmas

Mama, I will always love you
