I Saw Three Ships

I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day, on Christmas day I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day in the morning And who do you think was in them then? On Christmas day, on Christmas day And who do you think was in them then But Joseph and his lady He did whistle and she did sing On Christmas day, on Christmas day He did whistle and she did sing On Christmas day in the morning And all the bells on earth did ring On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the bells on earth did ring On Christmas day in the morning And all the angels in heaven did sing On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the angels in heaven did sing On Christmas day in the morning I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day, on Christmas day I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day in the morning --- I Saw Three Ships - Bruce Cockburn
