The Little Boy That Santa Forgot Lyrics - Vera Lynn At Christmas - Vera Lynn

Christmas comes but once a year for every girl and boy 

The laughter and the joy they find in each new toy 

I'll tell you of a little boy who lives across the way 

This little fella's Christmas is just another day 

He's the little boy that Santa Claus forgot 

And goodness knows, he didn't want a lot 

He sent a note to Santa 

For some soldiers and a drum 

It broke his little heart 

When he found Santa hadn't come 

In the street he envied all those lucky boys 

Then wandered home to last year's broken toys 

I'm so sorry for that laddie 

He hasn't got a daddy 

The little boy that Santa Claus forgot
