I Saw Three Ships

I saw three ships come sailing in

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

I saw three ships come sailing in

On Christmas day in the morning


The Captain sailed us 'round the Horn

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Through Frost and snow and icy storms

On Christmas day in the morning


Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day in the morning


Wrap him up with ribbons and bows

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Tie him tight, with a yo-he-ho

On Christmas day in the morning


Now it's time to dress the tree

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Let's put him where the star should be

On Christmas day in the morning


Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day in the morning


Sing him carols, drink his wine

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

To keep us hauling ropes in time

On Christmas day in the morning


What else will lead to better ends

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Good times, good food, and all our friends

On Christmas day in the morning


Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day in the morning


So drink a glass, or two, or three

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

To end this Yuletide mutiny

On Christmas day in the morning


Cap'n won't you take us home

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

We Jolly boys no more shall roam

On Christmas day in the morning


Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day, on Christmas day

Heave away, haul away

On Christmas day in the morning
