lyrics

christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama (X4)

not a shirt pon mih back
mih wah mih yama
no darkers or hat
mih wah mih yama
not a loan not even that
mih wah mih yama
christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama
not a shoe pon mih foot
mih wah mih yama
no fish I can hook
mih wah mih yama
Holes in my worship suit
mih wah mih yama
christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama

christmas ah come
mih wah mih degedeh (X4)

cuh di i pon dem phone
mih wah mih degedeh
cuh di ciar dat dem own
mih wah mih degedeh
iz credit or debit
mih wah mih degedeh
christmas ah come
mih wah mih degedeh

christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama
christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama
christmas ah come
mih wah mih degedeh
christmas ah come
mih wah mih degedeh

but at least we have
breadfruit roasting on an open fire
mongrels nipping at our toes
reggae songs sung by rastas
higher and higher
merry christmas to you
merry christmas to you

oh you better watch out
you better not cry
better not pout I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
he’s making a list
he’s checking it twice
gonna find out who’s naughty or nice
Santa Claus is coming to town

He knows when you are sleeping
He knows when you’re awake
He knows when you’ve been
Good or bad
So be good for goodness sake

oh you better watch out
you better not cry
better not pout I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

we wish you a merry christmas
we wish you a merry christmas
we wish you a merry christmas
and a happy new year
Good tidings we bring
To you and your kin
we wish you a merry christmas
and a happy new year

we wish you a merry christmas
(no car that I own)
we wish you a merry christmas
(no “i” on my phone)
we wish you a merry christmas
(oh)
and a happy new year

christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama
(wish you a merry christmas)
(don’t cry)
christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama
(wish you a merry christmas)
(watch yourself)
christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama
(wish you a merry christmas)
(I’m telling you why)
christmas ah come
mih wah mih yama

Jamaican-Born, Singer/Songwriter/Performer Owen Plant's style is reminiscent of artists from the '70s, old-time reggae groups and contemporary acoustic artists. His laid back, soothing and delicately honed vocals and songwriting are the center pieces of his sound.

His forthcoming LP, “I Was on the Moon” is his most ambitious in scope. It is slated for release early summer 2016.
