CHRISTMAS WITHOUT DADDY
(Jay Lee Webb)
Loretta Lynn - 1966


Christmas Day is getting closer 
But there's sadness mixed with joy
Every day a few more questions 
From our little girl and boy
Not alone, but they'll be lonely 
For their Daddy won't be here
And just like the air at Christmas 
There'll be a chill upon the chill

Christmas without Daddy 
Will be such a lonesome day
We'll send a prayer and
All our love to you so far away
Your son just wrote to Santa 
Asked him to send you home
Yes Christmas without Daddy 
We'll be blue and all alone

(Instrumental Break)

Christmas without Daddy 
I don't know what we're gonna do
On the present from your baby 
She wrote, "Daddy, I love you"
Your son just wrote to Santa 
Asked him to send you home
Yes Christmas without daddy 
We'll be blue and all alone
