"The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot" is the Christmas song performed by Nat 'King' Cole.

Lyrics[]

He's the little boy
that Santa Claus forgot
And goodness knows
He didn't want a lot

He sent a note to Santa
For some soldiers and a drum
It broke his little heart
When he found Santa hadn't come

[Chorus]
In the street he envies all those lucky boys
Then wanders home to last year's broken toys
I'm so sorry for that laddie
He hasn't got a daddy
The little boy that Santa Claus forgot

You know, Christmas comes
but once a year for every girl and boy
The laughter and the joy they
find in each brand new toy

I'll tell you of a little boy
that lives across the way...
This little fella's Christmas
is just another day

[Repeat the first stanza and the chorus]
