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
