ISLAND SANTA
Christmas on the island, what a lovely place to be No snow for Santa's sleigh though, only sand and sea But the children have a Santa of their very own He lives on a secret island in the temperate zone
He comes to each island In a little red boat Pulled by sea horses instead of reindeer And he's got some little reggae band Playing on the deck Singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Halle" Singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
A week before Christmas, all the mermaids go To every ship far and near Saying "give me a toy for some island girl or boy And you will have luck all next year"
And they fill up Santa's Little red boat Pulled by sea horses instead of reindeer They get that little reggae band Playing on the deck Singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Halle" Singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
On Christmas Eve when island kids are lying in their beds And they think they hear a reggae band down the beach way It's the Island Santa in his little boat of red Bringing them toys for Christmas day
And he comes to each island In a little red boat Pulled by sea horses instead of reindeer And he's got some little reggae band Playing on the deck Singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Halle" Singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Halle" They're singing "Hallelujah, be of good cheer"
