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