Dashing Through the Snow in a Rusty Chevrolet
This funny Christmas Song made my daughter really giggle, especially when I translated it to Dutch, her mothertongue…
And then she started asking questions: Mom, what is a piston ring, and what are snow tires (she was brought up in Mediterranean Portugal, she saw snow for the first time in her life when she was 6!). Anyway, I managed to distract her from the technical details, and I explained that the idea of it is to be a funny christmas song, and not a lesson in mechanics…
Have fun!
1. Dashing Through The Snow
In My Rusty Chevrolet
Down the Road I Go
Sliding All the Way
I Need New Piston Rings
I Need Some New Snow Tires
My Car Is Held Together
By a Piece of Chicken Wire
Chorus:
Rust and Smoke the Heater’s Broke
The Door Just Blew Away
I Light a Match to See the Dash
And Then I Start to Pray
The Frame Is Bent the Muffler Went
The Radio It’s Ok
Oh What Fun It Is to Drive
This Rusty Chevrolet
2. I Went to the Iga
To Get Some Christmas Cheer
I Just Passed Up My Left Front Tire
And Its Getting Hard to Steer
Skidding Down the Highway
Right Past the Negaunee Cops
I Had to Drag My Swampers
To Get the Car to Stop
Chorus
3. Bouncing Through the Snowdrifts
In a Big Blue Cloud of Smoke
People Laugh As I Drive By
I Wonder What’s the Joke
I Got to Get to Shopko
To Pick Up the Layaway
Cause Santa Claus Is Coming Soon
In His Big Old Rusty Sleigh
Chorus
I hope you liked this funny Christmassong just as much as we did…. And we’ll keep being on the watch out for more ![]()
