It was almost Christmas time
And there I stood in another line
Trying to buy that last gift or two
Not really in the Christmas mood
And standin roght in front of me was a
Little boy waitind anxiously
Pacin around like little boys do
And in his hands he held
A pair of shoes
His clothes were worn and old
He was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't beleive what I heard him say
CHORUS:
Sir I wanna buy these shoes
For my mama. please
It's Christmas eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir
Daddy says there's not much time
You see,
She's been sick for quite a while And I
know these shoes will make her smile And I
Want her to look beautiful
If mama meets Jesus tonight
They counted penny's for what seemed like years then the
Cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here."
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me and he said
"Mama made Christmas good at our house though
Most years she just did without, Tell me sir,
What am I gonna do?
Some how I gotta buy her these Christmas shoes."
So I laid the money down
I just had to help him out
And I'll never forget the look on his face when he said,
"Mama's gonna look so great."
Repeat Chorus
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love as he thanked me and ran out
Maaaaaaaan, this jam got me dancing in the morning...Still as fresh as it was in 98.
What a collabo!!! RIP BigPun!!!

This track is badass! Forgot I had it until I found my white label buried in one of my crates the other day =)

The first latin in rap to come home with a platinum plaque, Big Pun is the sickest latin hip hop artist ever.
This song brings back a lot of good memories of old girlfriends and just homies when I was younger, one of the best R&B songs ever mos def
They just don't make them like this anymore
