Merry Christmas!



Dashing through the bush
In a rusty Holden Ute (Vauxall Truck)
Kicking up the dust
Esky (ice box) in the boot
Kelpie (dog) by my side
Singing Christmas songs
Its summer time and I am in
My singlet (vest), shorts and thongs (flip flops!)

Oh, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia
On a scorching summer's day
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Christmas time is beaut
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a rusty Holden Ute

Engine's getting hot
Dodge the kangaroos
Swaggy (underclass transient temporary worker) climbs aboard
He is welcome too
All the family is there
Sitting by the pool
Christmas day, the Aussie way
By the barbecue!

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 (depart quickly)
Before the washing up
