A Ugandan Christmas song

Another missionary here made up a version of "Jingle Bells" related to transportation in a taxi here in Uganda. I love it and all my students sang it for me this morning. Here it is:

Dashing through the mud

In a four door taxi van

Fourteen passengers

And a conductor hanging on. 

No lights, no brakes, no horn

But still we carry on

We're going to our jja-ja's house

We'll get there just at dawn. 

Oh..

Chicken here, chicken there, chicken in my ear,

Bok, bok, bok!

Oh what fun it is to ride in a taxi without gears.

Chicken here, chicken there, chicken in my ear,

Bok, bok, bok!

Oh what fun it is to ride in a taxi without gears!
