We Don't Have A Chimney - Lyrics & Music ©2011:Tim Newlin
The lights are up on Main Street - They say you’ll come to town
Found a website with your address - And wrote this message down
The thing I need to tell you - We’re living kinda poor
We don’t have a chimney - So you’ll have to use the door
I’ll leave the back door open - and a candle by the tree
Hoping that you’ll get this - and still remember me
I’m counting on you Santa - I’ve done what I can do
The kids all need a Christmas - and what they need is you
Forgive that I’ve not written - You know what I’ve been through
Like many folks I’ve lost my way - And don’t know what to do
The kids say that you're watching - and that you know the score
That we don’t have a chimney - So you’ll have to use the door
I’ll leave the back door open - and a candle by the tree
Hoping that you’ll get this - and still remember me
I’m counting on you Santa - I’ve done what I can do
The kids all need a Christmas - and what they need is you
You fly the world in just one night - A Fairytale some say
But the world is filled with children - Who believe it anyway
It could be this is childish - But maybe that’s the key
So I’ll leave the backdoor open - And a candle by the tree
I’ll leave the back door open - and a candle by the tree
Hoping that you’ll get this - and still remember me
I’m counting on you Santa - I’ve done what I can do
The kids all need a Christmas - and what they need is you
I’m counting on you Santa - Won’t bother any more
But we don’t have a chimney - So you’ll have to use the door
