[00:00:00] Just Three Letters for Christmas - Walter Brennan

[00:00:00] Written by：Walter Brennan

[00:00:00] She's been out that kitchen all mornin' now

[00:00:03] 'Cause tomorrow is Christmas eve

[00:00:06] Now I ain't had the heart to show her some how

[00:00:10] These letters I hate for her to read

[00:00:14] Yesterday mornin' I went after the mail

[00:00:18] I always bring it back to her to open

[00:00:22] If is some reason though I read johnny's letter

[00:00:27] And he ain't comin' home like we was hopin'

[00:00:31] With him bein' the yougest in his first year away

[00:00:35] I knowed it was gonna hurt her some

[00:00:39] So I didn't tell her right then thought I'd wait till today

[00:00:44] Till after the mail had run

[00:00:48] Then this mornn' there was letter from both the girls

[00:00:52] Now they wouldn't be writtin' if they was comin' home

[00:00:56] So I opened them up and sure enough

[00:01:00] They got around to it 'fore long

[00:01:05] Dear mom and dad please understand

[00:01:08] Well it hurts so much to say

[00:01:13] I won't be there the way I planned

[00:01:17] No I won't be home Christmas day

[00:01:21] Now they all three got their reasons

[00:01:23] And each one believes the other two be comin' home

[00:01:30] And I know they'd find a way to be here Christmas eve

[00:01:34] If they knowed we was goin' be alone

[00:01:38] So she's out in that kitchen gettin' thing ready

[00:01:42] For a family that won't be here

[00:01:45] And in a little while now she'll read these letter

[00:01:49] And each one will bring a tear

[00:01:55] Dear mom and dad please understand

[00:01:59] What it hurts so much to say

[00:02:02] I won't be here the way I planned

[00:02:08] No they won't be home Christmas day
