lyrics

______________________________________________

Mr Bell has a long white beard
It's been growing for 33 years
Since the day that he arrived
At Yallingup with Bonza Bob

He got a job milking cows
He found his love on the swell
Then he said I ain't ever moving on

Mrs Gray was the teacher's name
She called him up one December day
Mr Bell can you bring your boots
At 3pm for the end of school

The children noticed right away
Some had seen him down the bay
They knew he had a surfboard not a sleigh

There he goes, here comes surfin' santa
Everybody knows, we call him surfin' santa

And now the children want him every year
On boxing day they go watch him down the bay
