Copied!

{Intro}
Alton (Oy, oy, oy)
Open the door (Oh, ah)
Five o' clock a morning come back
I man don't have no money
I man don't mind paying you the rent
I man mean now, is merry Christmas, I am gone

{Verse 1}
All we have got to say
Hear these Jamaicans today

{Chorus}
A merry, merry Christmas
A merry, merry Christmas
A merry, merry Christmas
A merry, merry Christmas

{Verse 2}
I say, if you have a gun and you don't have run
Youthman, dash that away and have some fun
Look, see

{Chorus}
A merry, merry Christmas (See)
A merry, merry Christmas (Oh woah)

{Instrumental}

{Verse 3}
All we have got to say
Hear these Jamaicans today

{Chorus}
A merry, merry Christmas
A merry, merry Christmas
A merry, mеrry Christmas
A merry, merry Christmas

{Verse 4}
I say, if you fancy material
You havе nothing to go anywhere
You see

{Outro}
Merry, merry Christmas
A merry, merry Christmas (See)
A merry, merry Christmas (Woah-oh)
A merry, merry Christmas (Oh-oh)
A merry, merry Christmas (Ah)
A merry, Merry Christmas
A merry, Merry Christmas
A merry, Merry Christmas
