    Three thousand miles a-way, now he's . working Christmas Day

    He's spending Christmas Eve a-lone

  • Four more dollars buys a decent meal and a room
    5 * 6m * 2m
    Looks like the Sally Ann place after all, in a crowded sleeping hall
  • * 5 4 5
    That echoes like a tomb_______
    1 * 5 *
  • But it's warm and clean and free, and there are worse places to be
    6m 5 4 1 *
    At least it means no beating from her Dad
  • 5 * 6m
    And if she cries be-cause it's Christmas Day
    * 2m *
  • She hopes that it won't show
