Bahamian Christmas--Lyrics

By Anne Fresco and David Washington

CHORUS It’s Christmas In the Bahamas. It’s Christmas Around the world.

VERSE 1 Boys and girls are sleeping, Dreaming of the joy of Christmas morning. Mom and Dad are creeping, Making sure they won’t be disappointed. Promises are made To awakening souls. With the dawning day Bells begin to ding-dong, ding-dong, ding.

CHORUS

VERSE 2 While the earth is sleeping Waiting for the light of Christmas morning, Angels all are singing Of the life that’s newly born within us. Promises are made To awakening souls, With the dawning day Bells begin to dingdong, dingdong, ding.

CHORUS It’s Christmas (Christmas time) In the Bahamas (‘Round the world). It’s Christmas (Christmas time) Around the world (‘Round the world). It’s Christmas (Christmas time) In the Bahamas (‘Round the world). It’s Christmas (Christmas time) Around the world (‘Round the world).

OUTRO Ding-dong, ding-dong, Ding-dong, ding-dong, Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong.
