There’s no “Dashing through the snow” in Australia where Christmas falls in Summer.
Australians have their own humorous version of the traditional Jingle Bells, more suited to an Australian Christmas and a hot summer.

Aussie Jingle Bells
To the tune of Jingle Bells

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 summer time 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 summer’s day
HEY!

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
Swaggy climbs aboard
He is welcome too

All the family’s there
Sitting by the pool
Christmas day
THE AUSSIE WAY
by the barbeque

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
