Are you working Christmas Day?
Merry Christmas
Twas’ the night before Christmas
And all through the boat
The chance of going home
Seemed quite remote
The crew was all ready
Their bags were all packed
The go ahead from the super
Was all that they lacked
Then from the stern
There came such a clatter
I looked out my porthole
To see what was the matter
A crewboat was coming
It’s engine a roar
Carrying supplies for the job
And personnel from shore
All hands were on deck
And with hope they believed
That someone was onboard
So they could be relieved
On came a welder a diver
2 tenders a cook
All others must stay on
You should have seen the look
They knew they were stuck
For the rest of the hitch
How long before I’m off?
You could hear them all bitch
And as the boat left
They were all heard to say
I swear that next year
I won’t work Christmas day
I know how you feel. I work in the oilfield in the Gulf of Mexico. I am waiting for my hitch to end but I am affraid I might be stuck out here for Christmas day. But you never know, I will have to wait and see if my relief comes out on the right boat.
