Mike Aiken - Christmas Schooner lyrics
Your rating:
Chorus: And its clang, clang, clang full steam ahead Haul away haul away Ho It's the Christmas Schooner bringing Christmas trees Yo Ho The Captain had a twinkle in his blue eyes he had bright red rosy cheeks A crew that kind of looked like elves all dressed in red and green The waves were big the wind was high she was sailing with a bone in her teeth Underneath that old bow sprit was a giant Christmas wreath Chorus Dolphins played in her bow wave and whales jumped in her wake A pelican circled overhead saying hurry for goodness sake She was heading down south from way up north where the ocean it does freeze Haulin a load of Christmas cheer to the land of the coconut tree Bridge: Is that Santa Claus at the wheel now who could say? A mighty sailing ship or was that Santa's sleigh? Sailed into harbor in the middle of the night Left Christmas trees and cheer sailed on by morning light Then you heard Chorus Now children they have seen her from Maine to Key Biscayne From Fiji to Australia and round the world again Now when you see a Christmas tree you'll know she's passed your way Just close your eyes, say “I believe” and she'll be back next Christmas day Bridge Chorus x 2
