Jingle Bells sung by true Ozzies!

Lyrics:

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 & I’m in my, singlet, shorts & thongs

 

Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Jingle all the way,

Christmas in Australia, on a scorching summer day,

Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Christmas time is beaut,

O what fun it is to ride, in a rusty Holden ute

 

Engine’s 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 BBQ

 

Chorus

 

Come the afternoon, Grandpa has a doze,

Alle children there, are swimming in their clothes,

The times comes round to go, we take a family snap,

And pack the car & all shoot through, before the washing up

 

Chorus

 

Original lyrics:

Dashing through the snow,

In a one-horse open sleigh,

O’er the fields we go,

Laughing all the way.

Bells on Bobtail ring,

Making spirits bright,

What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight

 

Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Jingle all the way,

O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey!

Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Jingle all the way,

O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
