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.



cho: 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.



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.



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.
