Jingle Bells lyrics

JINGLE BELLS

Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh
and o'er the fields we go laughing all the way.
The bells on bobtail ring making spirits bright.
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight.

      Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
      Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.
      Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
      Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.

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,
he got into a drifted bank and we, we got upsot.

      Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
      Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.
      Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
      Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.

Now the ground is white; go it while you're young,
take a ride tonight and sing this sleighing song.
Just get a bobtailed bay, two-forty for his speed;
then hitch him to an open sleigh and crack you'll take the lead.

      Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
      Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.
      Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
      Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.
