Jingle Bells (Australian Version #2)
Jingle Bells (Australian Version #2)
Christmas Carol
Dashing through the bush, in a rusty Holden ute,
Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot,
Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs,
It's Summertime, and I am in my singlet, shorts and thongs.
(CHORUS)
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summers day,
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute.
Engines getting hot, we dodge the kangaroos,
The swaggie climbs aboard, he is welcome too,
All the family's there, sitting by the pool,
Christmas day in the Aussie way, by the B.B.Q.
(CHORUS)
Come the afternoon, Grandpa has a doze,
The kids and Uncle Bruce, are swimming in their clothes,
The time comes round to go, we take a family snap,
Then pack the car and all shoot through, before the washing up.
(CHORUS)
