Early on one
Christmas Day a joey kangaroo
Was far from home and lost in a great big zoo
"Mummy where's my mummy? They've taken her away"
'We'll help you find your mummy son, just hop up on the
sleigh'
Up beside the bag of toys little Joey hopped
But they hadn't gone far when Santa stopped
Unharnessed all the reindeer and Joey wondered why
Then he heard a far off booming in the sky
CHORUS: Six white boomers
snow white boomers
Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun
Six white boomers snow white boomers
On his Australian run
Pretty soon old Santa
began to feel the heat
Took his fur-lined boots off to cool his feet
Into one popped Joey feeling quite okay
While those old man kangaroos kept pulling on the
sleigh
CHORUS
Joey said to Santa "What
about the toys?
Aren't you giving some to these girls and boys?"
"They've got all their presents son, we were here last
night,
This trip is an extra trip, Joey's special
flight"
CHORUS
Soon the sleigh was
flashing past right over Marble Bar
"Slow down there" cried Santa "it can't be far,
Come up on my lap here son, and have a look around"
"There she is, that's mummy, bounding up and
down"
CHORUS
Well that's the bestest
Christmas treat that Joey ever had
Curled up in his mother's pouch, all snug and glad
The last they saw was Santa heading northward from the
sun
The only year the boomers worked a double run
CHORUS
