The Christmas Hawker

Way out here in the west
In the bush we are blessed
But we're far away from corner stores
And the Christmas treats we so adore
-----------------
There came a saviour in his Thermodyne
Carrying gifts of every kind
Decorations, baubles, Christmas trees
Cigars and hams and and gifts to please
-----------------
The Christmas hawker he's our Santa Claus
He rides these plains on his iron horse
For outback children, girls and boys
Spreading joy with his sleigh of toys
----------------
The Christmas hawker he's a talker
Brings us all the news
From the big smoke to the west of Burke
With a mighty laugh and a heaving girth
------------------------
With a cup of cheer he's powering on
To the next place further on
Out along dusty trails and plains
Until next year he comes our way again
------------------------
The Christmas hawker he's our Santa Claus
He rides these plains on his iron horse
For outback children, girls and boys
Spreading joy with his sleigh of toys
----------------
The horizon dances before our eyes
His truck is heading for the skies
Christmas bells and trailer lights
Our Santa drives on through the night
-----------------
The Christmas hawker he's our Santa Claus
He rides these plains on his iron horse
For outback children, girls and boys
Spreading joy with his sleigh of toys
----------------
Christmas is here
Let's celebrate it one more year
Christmas is here
No matter where you are
Wish upon a Christmas star
