JINGLE BELLS
1. Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O’re the fields we go Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring Making spirits bright
What joy it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight.
Chorus:
Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, O Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
2. A day or two ago
I thought I’d take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank
And there we got upsot.
Chorus
3. A day or two ago The story I must tell
I went out on the snow And on my back I fell; A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed at me as I there sprawling laid But quickly drove away.
Chorus
4. Now the ground is white,
Go it while you’re young,
Take the girls along
And sing this sleighing song.
Just bet a bob-tailed bay,
Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh
and crack! You’ll take the lead.
Chorus
