There was no snow in the outback When Christ was born that night
Just a mama singing Dreamtime Saw the stars so bright
Now the kids down in the cities Hangin' ribbons on the tree
Oh it's Christmas in Australia So God bless you and me
Oh they're ringin' bells in Adelaide And Perth will light their lights
Oh the kids up there in Queensland Their eyes a-shinin' bright
From Melbourne town to Sydney As the jacaranda dies
Oh it's Christmas in Australia Underneath our southern skies
Oh it's Christmas in Australia The Southern Cross shines bright
From Darwin to Tasmania It's Aussie Christmas time
The farmers and the fishermen All bow their heads to pray
We will all be thankful That God gave us this day
Just a baby in the manger Fill the whole world up with light
Oh it's Christmas in Australia And carols by candlelight
It's Christmas in Australia The Southern Cross shines bright
From Darwin to Tasmania It's Aussie Christmas time
It's Aussie Christmas time
