Shepherds are watching
Their sheep on the hill
Nothing is stirring,
The night is quite still.
Everything's peaceful
But only until
There suddenly shines a great light.
And the sheep go baa!
Baa-baa-bananas, baa-baa-bananas
As they bounce with joy!
Baa, baa, baa! Baa-baa-bananas,
Baa-baa-bananas for the boy!
Angels appear in a beautiful throng.
"Don't be afraid!"
Say the words of their song.
"Go down to Bethlehem!
Don't take too long!
A new king is born tonight!"
And the sheep go baa!
Baa-baa-bananas, baa-baa-bananas
As they bounce with joy!
Baa, baa, baa! Baa-baa-bananas,
Baa-baa-bananas for the boy!
