Colin Buchanan
Twinkle Twinkle Little Town
[Verse 1]
Twinkle, twinkle, little town
All the world is sleeping
'Cross the roof with bags of toys
Somebody is creeping
The gentle rustle of the trees
On this warm December eve
Peace and stillness all around
It's Christmas in an outback town

[Chorus]
Merry outback Christmas
Merry outback Christmas

[Verse 2]
Lights are out, the hour is late
All the houses waiting
Everything in readiness
All anticipating
Twinkle, twinkle, tiny lights
Shining in the sky tonight
Though he comes but once a year
Santa Claus will soon be here

[Chorus]
Merry outback Christmas
Merry outback Christmas
[Verse 1]
Twinkle, twinklе, little town
All the world is sleeping
'Cross the roof with bags of toys
Somеbody is creeping
The gentle rustle of the trees
On this warm December eve
Peace and stillness all around
It's Christmas in an outback town

[Chorus]
So, merry outback Christmas
Merry outback Christmas

[Bridge]
To Teatree, Petrunia Creek
To Wynton and to Bulyea
To Blackhorn, Calgary to Jericho
To Stuart and Longreach
Mount Isa, or Broken Hill
Ivanhoe, Hungerford
Manuka, Murray, Curtain Springs

[Outro]
Merry outback Christmas
You are not forgotten
You are not forgotten
In the outback this Christmas
