I woke this morn and there beside my bed
Lay two stockings, one was green and one was red
Should I put them on my feet?
Or match them on my head?
verse 2
I think I'll wear my port starboard socks
They'll bring me luck tonight
The red one's on the left foot
And the green one's on the right
verse 3
I love to wear my port starboard socks
They chase my blues away
And when I wear my port starboard socks
It's Christmas every day
Stop and go, hot and cold
The ember and the envy
Red and green, a Christmas scene
The holly and the ivy
verse 4
I think I'll weave port starboard socks
For Santa and his reindeer
I'll find a great big cardboard box
And fill it with good cheer
Verse 5
A streak of red and one of green
Like ribbons, wound and curled
We'll make a great big Christmas wreath
That goes around the whole world
Stop and go, hot and cold
The ember and the envy
Red and green, a Christmas scene
The holly and the ivy
Verse 6
I woke this morn and there beside my bed
Lay two stockings, one was green and one was red
Should I put them on my feet?
Or match them on my head?
