Six White Boomers Lyrics

SIX WHITE BOOMERS

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, 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.

Joey said to Santa, “Santa, what about the toys?
Aren't you giving some to these girls and boys?”
“They've all got their presents son, we were here last night
This trip is an extra trip, Joey's special flight.”

(Repeat 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 son, and have a look around.”
“There she is, that's mummy, bounding up and down!”

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 headed northward from the sun
The only year the boomers worked a double run.

(Repeat chorus)
