I'm Dreaming
I'm dreaming of a hot Christmas
In the Australian summer sun.
With the bush birds ringing and merry singing
And children swimming, having fun.
I'm dreaming of a hot Christmas
The heat, the sun I've ne'er forgot.
Though a Yule may be pretty when white,
I hope all my Christmases are hot.
Author notes
Can be sung to the tune of the Irving Berlin song "White Christmas".
Christmas in Australia isn't about cold and snow ... it's about heat and flies.
