Seashells and coral upon my Christmas tree A gold glittered starfish on top for all to see Our Christmas cactus is finally in bloom Palm fronds with ribbons are hung in every room It's Christmas Day in Californ-i-ay The sun glowin' like a Christmas ball There's a swell up at Dume and soon the surfer moon Will bid a Merry Christmas to us all Bright painted driftwood upon the mantelpiece A conch full of berries, it's Christmas at the beach Twinkle lights on my woodie, and plates of Christmas goodies The smell of euchylyptus on the fire Friends get together, and talk of back East weather And sing the songs that us will all inspire It's Christmas Day in Californ-i-ay The sun glowin' like a Christmas ball There's a swell up at Dume and soon the surfer moon Will bid a Merry Christmas to us all
