About

This was an instrumental from the 1967 SMiLE sessions, and when it got revived in 2004, Van Dyke Park cooked up some new lyrics vaguely referring to Plymouth Rock (the original title), and the resulting sea travel and piracy life around at the time it was discovered

On A Holiday Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A pirate with a tune on a holiday
A lazy Mr. Moon on a getaway
And isn't that a mood for a milky way
A ukelele lady around a lei

[Hook]
Rock, rock, roll (Child!)
Rock, rock, roll Plymouth Rock, roll over
For a holiday

[Bridge]
Abash and forth a starboard course
With north abeam, sherry of course
The men will share some sport and now me hearty
Not the rum of Carib' scum
It's port tonight, drink up and come
Un-weigh the anchor Yank and we will party!

[Verse 2]
A shanty town, a shanty in Waikiki
And juxtapose a man with a mystery
A blue Hawaiian captures his melody
Pauahi O Kalani is what he sings to me

[Hook]
Rock, rock, roll (Child!)
Rock, rock, roll Plymouth Rock, roll over
For a holiday

[Outro]
Long, long ago, long ago

Whisperin' wind sent my wind chimes a-tinklin'
Whisperin' wind sent my wind chimes a-tinklin'
Whisperin' wind sent my wind chimes a-tinklin'
