Aussie Jingle Bells (Brilliant!)

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
Oh jingle bells jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summers day. Hey!
Jingle bells jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut!
Oh 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 the Aussie way, by the barbecue.
Oh jingle bells jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summers day. Hey!
Jingle bells jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut!
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden Ute.
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 the family snap
Pack the car and all shoot through before the washing up
Oh jingle bells jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summer's day. Hey!
Jingle bells jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut!
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden Ute.
Holden Ute (rhymes with boot) = a type of open back van (just about every bloke in Oz dives one)
Esky = a cool box
Kelpie = an Australian breed of dog
Singlet = vest
Thongs = flip flops
Swaggie = swagman, a drifter
