[Verse 1 (Lead, All)]
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

[Verse 2]
Our captain sent us 'round the Horn
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Through frost and snow and icy storms
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Chorus]
Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Verse 3]
Wrap him up with ribbons and bows
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Tie him tight with a yo-heave-ho
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Verse 4]
Now it's time to dress the tree
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Let's hang him where the star should be
On Christmas Day in the morning
[Chorus]
Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Verse 5]
Sing him carols, drink his wine
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
To keep us haulin' ropes in time
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Chorus 2]
Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Verse 6]
Raise a glass or two or three
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
To end this yuletide mutiny
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Verse 7]
Cap'n, won't you sail us home
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Wе jolly boys no more shall roam
On Christmas Day in the morning
[Chorus]
Heavе away, haul away
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day in the morning

Heave away, haul away
On Christmas Day in the morning
