Caribbeen Christmas Carol Question

Post by StJohnRuth »

The other day at the Governor's Christmas Party in Cruz Bay Park I heard a Christmas song that I loved, but I can't seem to track it down.
The lyrics are:
"Ho Ho Ho" (I know this is surpising)
"Ho Ho Ho"
"How will Santa Get In?"

It's about the lack of chimneys here and the challenge this presents to Santa....It's really cute and I'd love to get a copy. Does anyone recognize it?

It's also on iTunes.

Hi Ruth,

It's done by King Obstinate from Antigua. Cool Sessions does a great cover of it..

That's it, thank you! I'm downloading the whole album now.
This forum is just a wealth of important knowledge.
Thanks again,

I wish I was spending Christmas on "Christmas Island"! Another favorite of mine for many reasons!

5-6 inches of snow for us tomorrow. Yeah. I am so happy. (sense the sarcasm???)
