Jimmy Buffett - A Sailor's Christas lyrics

Your rating:

(Jimmy Buffett, Roger Guth) 

A sail on the horizon's got a land fall rendezvous 

The captain steers a well known course he steers her straight and true 

As he trims the sheets he sings a song he learned on boats and bars 

"A sailor spends his Christmas in a harbour 'neath the stars" 



He's traveled through the doldrums, typhoons and hurricanes 

He's logged a million soggy miles, with water on his brain 

But Christmas is the season better suited for dry land 

He'll tell some lies, meet some spies and dance barefoot in the sand 



Chorus: 

A sailor spends his Christmas in a harbour on the hook 

Cali, Calais no work today, let's shelve the old log book 

The waterfront is reveling, the season has begun 

A sailor spends his Christmas in a harbour having fun. 



There's a party down at Le Select all music, rhum and cheers 

Faces in the shadows, I haven't seen for years 

The masts and shrouds are filled with lights 'neath the waning of the moon 

There's an air of celebration in the realm of King Neptune. 



Chorus: 



Instrumental bridge 



Jesus was a fisherman who walked upon the sea 

The North Pole is the ocean's remote frozen balcony 

The continents keep drifting but the children sing and play 

Cause nothing really matters after all it's Christmas day 



Chorus:
