Mom, dad
You might wanna stay home this year
Honey, I'll see you later
I'm doin' somethin' different for Christmas

I'm going surfing for Christmas day
I don't need Santa to take my worries away
I'm headed south where there's sure to be waves
I'm going surfing for Christmas day

I'm going surfing for Christmas day
Just take my presents and put them away
I don't need a shirt or a sweater today, no
I'm going surfing for Christmas day

The Sun is shinin' away
I know there's bound to be waves
It's really not that far
I won't need a plan
You can eat your turkey
Leave my beans on the sand

I'm going surfing for Christmas day
What better present than a beach holiday
Just tell Santa I'll be ridin' a wave
I'm going surfing for Christmas day
