Tim McGraw performed his go to holiday song “It Wasn’t His Child” on Monday (Nov. 30) night during CMA Country Christmas.

“I’m performing ‘It Wasn’t His Child.’ It was written by Skip Ewing, who I’m a big fan of and I’ve known this song, gosh, since the late ’80s I guess and I’ve performed it several times at Christmas cause it’s always one of my go-to Christmas songs to perform and I always love it. I love the message of what it says and the story behind it,” McGraw explained ahead of the performance. “Just so well written, Skip’s a great writer.”
