A sail on the horizon's got a land fall rendezvous
The captain steers a well know 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 harbor 'neath the stars"
He's travel through the doldrums, typhoons and hurricanes
A sailor spends his Christmas in
A harbor 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 harbor having fun
There's a party down at Le Select
