I Want a Dog for Christmas

Mom and dad I haven't been bad

I've been pretty good, like you said I should

If I wanted Santa Claus to bring me a dog

Not a stuffed animal

I want one that is real

I want a dog for Christmas

I don't care what kind

Black or white or brown or red

Just want her to be mine

I'll walk her, and feed her, and scoop up her doo doos

Brush and clean her, and love her

And she'll love me too

I want a dog for Christmas

Please mom and dad

I want a dog for Christmas so bad

Won't you tell Santa please I'm scared she can't breath

If she's wrapped up too tight in a box overnight

Do you think that you could ask him

If he'll tuck her in my bed

I promise I won't stay up late

Or wake my sleepy head

I don't want a teddy bear

Or another barbie doll

I'm saying all my prayers

For what I want most of all

I want a dog for Christmas

Please mom and dad

I want a dog for Christmas so bad
