Chords with lyrics
[Intro]
N.C.
In Australia, Christmas comes in the middle of a very hot summer
So when Santa Claus delivers his presents
He's not taken around by reindeer because
They can't stand the terrible heat
He's taken around by six big, white, old man kangaroos
Called the six white boomers
C majorC
Early on one Christmas day
FF C majorC
A augmentedA joey kangaroo
C majorC
Was far from home and lost
D7D7 G7G7
In a great, big zoo
C majorC
Mommy.... Where's my mommy?
FF
They've taken her away
N.C.
We'll help you find your mommy, son
N.C.
Hop up on the sleigh
[Verse 1]
C majorC
So up inside the bag of toys
FF C majorC
Little joey hopped
C majorC D7D7 G7G7
But they hadn't gone far when Santa stopped
C majorC
Unharnessed all the reindeer
FF C majorC
And joey wondered why
C majorC G7G7 C majorC
Then he heard a far off booming in the sky
N.C.
(boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)
[Chorus]
C majorC
Six white boomers
FF C majorC
Snow white boomers
C majorC D7D7 G7G7
Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun

On his Australian run
[Verse 2]
C majorC FF C majorC
Pretty soon old Santa began to feel the heat
C majorC D7D7 G7G7
Took his fur-lined boots off to cool his feet
C majorC
Into one popped joey
FF C majorC
Feelin' quite okay
C majorC G7G7 C majorC
While those old man kangaroos kept pullin' on the sleigh
[Chorus]

Then joey said to Santa, "Santa, what about the toys?

Aren't you giving some to these girls and boys? "

"well, they've all had their presents, sonny
