A Honolulu Christmas is where I hope to be
On a beach with my girl drinking wine by the sea
On a blanket as the Sun sets and the waves roll in
The coconut trees to the hula they sway
Ya, me and my girl I think we like it that way, hey hey

A Honolulu Christmas is what we’d like to know
Where the rainbows substitute for the deep cold snow
And in the morning you can hear the birds singing their songs
Right in the heart of December
A perfect gift to remember, hey, hey

Ooooooooo
Ooooo, Ooooo

A Honolulu Christmas is it everything it seems
Are we deceiving ourselves or are we living in a dream
Or are we living in New England where even April is cold
Well I’m not so sure if it’s true
How about a ticket for two me and you

What would Santa Claus say
We could leave him a note to say we’ve gone away for
Just a little while. Hey you can even join us if you need a break
Like we do, we do, How about you Santa too
Like we do, yes it’s true, It could be a present just for you.
So let’s sing

Ooooooooo
Ooooo, Ooooo

A Honolulu Christmas where the waters they shine
In turquoise colors with our bottle of wine
We’re just digging our feet into the sand as the waves roll in.
A fragrance in the air as the trade winds blow
We’re with ukulele Santa singing Yippee Yi Yo, ho ho.
And he sings

Ooooooooo
Ooooo, Ooooo
