Slide slide down
we glide
Swish swoosh
goes our ride

Soldier's Night Before Christmas

'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the base Only sentries were stirring—they guarded the place. The soldiers were sleeping and snoring away As they dreamed of ‘back home’ on good Christmas Day…

Navy's Night Before Christmas

'Twas the night before Christmas, when way out to sea Not a creature was stirring to windward or lee. The sailors were nestled all snug in their racks Like orders of pancakes, so tight were the stacks.

Ocean's Child

When the last lullaby of whale song is sung
Baby naps on Mother’s back.
To ocean’s child we say good night
. Good night, little baby, good night.
