WILL SANTY COME TO SHANTY TOWN ?
(Eddy Arnold / Steve Nelson / Ed Nelson, Jr.)
Eddy Arnold - 1961


Will Santy come to Shanty Town to a poor littly boy like me?
Will he bring me some toys like the other girls and boys?
Will Santy come to Shanty Town if he sees our Christmas tree?
Mommy said he would if I promised to be good.

For we don't have a fireplace or a chimney on our shack
Like the other lucky children have who live across the track.
Now, if I say my pray'rs each day, when Christmas rolls around,
Will Santy come to Shanty Town?

Mommy said he would if I promised to be good.

He didn't stop last Christmas Eve, doesn't he know we live here?
Will my mommy have to paint my toys the way she did las year?
Now, if I say my pay'rs each day, when Christmas rolls around,
Will Santy come to Shanty Town?
