"Mele Kalikimaka" lyrics - STRAIGHT NO CHASER

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is a wise way
To say Merry Christmas to you
(Hawaii)

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing we say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is a wise way
To say Merry Christmas to you

[Bridge:]
Hawaii-ooh
An island breeze, a good Mai-Tai or two
At the Christmas season
It's what they say to you

Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is a wise way
To say Merry Christmas to you

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is a wise way
To say Merry Christmas
A very Merry Christmas
A very, very, merry, Merry Christmas to you
