I’ll Be Home for Christmas / Mele Kalikimaka

[I’ll Be Home for Christmas]

[Chorus]
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
But please, no snow or mistletoe
Oh why is where I'll be

[Mele Kalikimaka]

[Chorus]
Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day (Ooh-ooh)
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 will shine at day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way
To say Merry Christmas to you
Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day (Ooh-ooh)
That's the island greeting that we send to you
It's the land where palm trees sway

[Verse 1]
April, May, Summer or Fall
I like December most of all
Days are warm and nights are cool
An island yuletide for me

[Chorus]
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 will shine at day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way
To say Merry Christmas
A very Merry Merry Merry Christmas
To say Merry Christmas to you
Merry Christmas to you

[Outro]
You
