N.C.
In Australia, Christmas comes in the middle of a very hot summer
So when Santa Claus delivers his presents

They can't stand the terrible heat
He's taken around by six big, white, old man kangaroos
Called the six white boomers
CEarly on one Christmas day

In a D7great, big G7zoo
CMommy.... Where's my mommy?
FThey've taken her away
N.C.
We'll help you find your mommy, son

Hop up on the sleigh

So Cup inside the bag of toys
FLittle joey Chopped

CUnharnessed all the reindeer
And Fjoey wondered Cwhy
CThen he heard a far off G7booming in the Csky

[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

Early on one Christmas day

F C

A joey kangaroo

Was far from home and lost

D7 G7

In a great, big zoo

Mommy.... Where's my mommy?

They've taken her away

N.C.

We'll help you find your mommy, son

N.C.

Hop up on the sleigh

[Verse 1]

So up inside the bag of toys

F C

Little joey hopped

C D7 G7

But they hadn't gone far when Santa stopped

Unharnessed all the reindeer

F C

And joey wondered why

C G7 C

Then he heard a far off booming in the sky

N.C.

(boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)

[Chorus]

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

C D7 G7

Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

On his Australian run

[Verse 2]

C F C

Pretty soon old Santa began to feel the heat

C D7 G7

Took his fur-lined boots off to cool his feet

Into one popped joey

F C

Feelin' quite okay

C G7 C

While those old man kangaroos kept pullin' on the sleigh

[Chorus]

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

C D7 G7

Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

N.C.

On his Australian run

[Verse 3]

C F C

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

C D7 G7

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

This trip is an extra trip

Snow white boomers

C D7 G7

Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

N.C.

On his Australian run

[Verse 4]

Soon the sleigh was flashing past

F C

Right over marble bar

"slow down there!" cried Santa

D7 G7

"it can't be far

Hop up on my lap here, son

F C

And have a look around"

N.C.

"there, there she is!

That's mommy! Bounding up and down! "

Well, that's the bestest Christmas treat

F C

That joey ever had

C D7 G7

Curled up in mother's pouch feeling snug and glad

C F C

The last they saw was Santa heading northwards from the sun

G7 C

N.C.

The only year the boomers worked a double run

[Chorus]

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

C D7 G7

Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun

Six white boomers

F C

Snow white boomers

N.C.

On his Australian run
