Dashing through the snow, In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go, Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring, Making spirits bright
What fun 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.
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.
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.
