Christmas in the island breeze, ra-pa-pum-pum
The lights of coconut trees, ra-pa-pum-pum
[C] The Lord on the island beaches, ra-pa-pum-pum
Hills and valleys to the shining [Bb] seas, ra-pa-pum-pum
[Am] [C] Christmas on the island
[F] The summer to make a Christmas, ra-pa-pum-pum
When the week come
Witness in the city, come and gather round
Let me take you to Jamaica, ra-pa-pum-pum
If you never been, you're gonna be there long
Come and get your sugar cane from a Miss Oliver man
Treat you like a honey, sorry Lena-Jum
Jamaica eggnog is like heaven to your tongue
What else would you miss it to?
Come and give me some
No rolling in the snow, girls standing in the sun
So when you're ready, take a trip down to my island
Cause there's nothing like Christmas in my island
I've been around the world and traveled across the globe
But I'm always heading right back home for Christmas
Christmas in the island breeze, ra-pa-pum-pum
The lights of coconut trees, ra-pa-pum-pum
[C] The Lord on the island beaches, ra-pa-pum-pum
Hills and valleys to the shining [Bb] seas, ra-pa-pum-pum
[C] Christmas on the island
[F] Let's have a Jamaican Christmas, ra-pa-pum-pum
When we come
Ain't nothing like a J-A Christmas
I wanna be right here for the Christmas
Can't fly a reindeer, that's a fiction
You might find Santa Claus on a picture
I don't know about elves and jackdaws
But I can give you dirt chicken with the hot sauce
From your girlfriend lunch, she no stop laughing
Says she having a good time, kick your socks off
So when you're ready, take a trip down to my island
Cause there's nothing like Christmas in my island
I've been around the world and traveled across the globe
But I'm always heading right back home for Christmas
Christmas in the island breeze, ra-pa-pum-pum
