Australian Christmas Traditions Explained To The World

Australian Christmas Traditions Explained To The World

8.

“We learnt Aussie ‘Jingle Bells’ at school, and always sang that at the end of year assembly. I didn’t know it was a different song and now that I think about it, I don’t know the words of the original ‘Jingle Bells’.”

And for those who want to know the Aussie 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 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.”
