[00:19.33]He was just a little farm lad so busy at play
[00:23.73]with his little play mate outside the gate
[00:27.96]He stopped to watch a truck that was parking next door
[00:32.13]At the home of his tiny play mate
[00:36.76]
[00:37.05]Then he saw his daddy watching too
[00:40.40]As the men swiftly walked to the cottage door
[00:45.24]He knew they were strangers that came from the town
[00:49.37]Men he had never seen before
[00:53.09]
[01:12.85]They soon went to work when he heard his daddy say
[01:17.06]Our neighboors are moving today
[01:21.65]"Oh no" he cried dear God don't let it be
[01:25.54]They can't take my sweetheart away
[01:29.40]
[01:30.39]I know Dad you don't understand
[01:34.62]How a heart so young could conceive a plan
[01:38.71]I'm only 7 now but it's just like you say
[01:43.44]Daddy some day I'll be a man
[01:47.06]
[02:06.72]The man who owns the farm where your playmates do live
[02:10.88]He told me it has to be this way
[02:15.16]For winter time has come and the work is all done
[02:19.42]That's why they are moving today
[02:22.76]
[02:24.22]Let us buy the farm so they can stay
[02:28.21]And give them all the toys that dear Santa gave
[02:32.52]And give them all my pennies in my little piggy bank
[02:37.32]Pennies that my darling help me save
