A Sailor`s Christmas Lyrics |
||
|
(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 |
