Bobby Wants A Puppy Dog For Christmas - Merle Haggard

Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas

I know you plan to bring electric train

Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas

That is the only song we hear him sing

Santa please remember Bobby’s lonely

The closest neighbour’s farm is quite a ways

And the country school don’t have no children Bobby’s size

And I’d like to give him something he can raise

And Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas

I know you plan to bring electric train

But Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas

And that’s the only song we hear him sing

Butch and Susie won’t be here for Christmas

And he won’t see his cousins now until spring

If we can find a playmate he can play with

Santa that’ll be all you have to bring

And Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas

I know you plan to bring electric train

But Bobby wants a puppy dog for Christmas

And that’s the only song we hear him sing
