Текст песни Faraway Christmas Blues - Johnny Otis

Christmas time is here
And my baby's so far away
Christmas time is here
And my baby is so far away

Don't bring me nothing for Christmas
But my baby back today

It's been so long
Since my heart was happy
My daddy is so far away
But I hope he's not gone to stay

Santa Claus, don't bring me nothing
But my baby back today

Santa Claus, tell my baby
I'm coming home today
I'm gonna hold her close this Christmas
And never stray away

'Cause it's so sad and lonely
When my baby's far from me

I'm gonna meet her tonight
Beneath the Christmas tree

I'm gonna grab you Christmas morning
Don't you ever let me go
And by New year's morning baby
I won't be blue, no morning

'Cause it's so sad and lonely
When my baby's far from me

I'm gonna meet you tonight
Beneath the Christmas tree
