Jingle Bells

Written by John Pierpont

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh

O'er the fields we go

Laughing all the way

Bells on bob-tails 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!

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

Soon Miss Fanny Bright

Was seated at my side

The horse was lean and lank

Misfortune seem'd his lot

He got into a drifed bank

And we, we got upsot!

Chorus

Now the ground is white

Go it while you're young

Take the girls tonight

And sing this sleighing song

Just get a bob-tailed bay

Two-forty for his speed

Then hitch him to an open sleigh

And crack!  You'll take the lead!

Chorus
