Caballo de Palo

I watched sadlyYo miraba entristecida
As my friends smiledA mis amigos sonreír
With heaps of toysCon montones de juguetes
That Santa Claus brought them that nightQue esa noche se les trajo Santa Claus
But not to mePero a mí no

I ran back homeFui corriendo hasta mi casa
And told my dadY le dije a mi papá
Why is it that I, who am so goodPor qué yo que soy tan bueno
Behave like themQue me porto como ellos
Always have to playSiempre tengo que jugar
With my old stick horseCon mi viejo caballo de palo

With this old stick horseCon este viejo caballo de palo
That once served as my swordQue me sirviera de espada una vez
I've spent six Christmases with itSeis navidades con él he pasado
Tell me, dad, why?Di, papá, ¿por qué?
