A Scruffian Christmas Carol 2
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.
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?
A host of Scruffians off for sale,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
A host of Scruffians off for sale,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?
O they sailed for the colonies,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
O they sailed for the colonies,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the auctioneers shall sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the auctioneers shall sing,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the whips and chains shall sting,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the whips and chains shall sting,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Then let us rise and slit their throats,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Then let us rise and slit their throats,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?
A host of Scruffians off for sale,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
A host of Scruffians off for sale,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?
O they sailed for the colonies,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
O they sailed for the colonies,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the auctioneers shall sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the auctioneers shall sing,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the whips and chains shall sting,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the whips and chains shall sting,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Then let us rise and slit their throats,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Then let us rise and slit their throats,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
