Chorus:
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Snowbirds fill the air
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Lots of presents everywhere
We don't live in a hurry
Send away for mistletoe
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow

Lights are blowing in the palm trees
Stockings hanging from the mast
Santa riding on a dolphin
Don't you want to make it
Don't you want to make it last

Chorus:
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Snowbirds fill the air
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Lots of presents everywhere
We don't live in a hurry
Send away for mistletoe
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Snow?

Suntanned children sleeping
Hoping Santa will come true
Christmas morning marlin leaping
Oh it's papa's birthday
Mister Buffett's birthday too!

Chorus:
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Snowbirds fill the air
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Good feelings everywhere
We don't live in a hurry
Send away for mistletoe
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow

Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
Christmas in the Caribbean
Got everything but snow
