Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh Over 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! O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! O 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 He got into a drifted bank and we got up shot [Chorus] 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 as there I sprawling lie but quickly drove away [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 as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack! You'll take the lead [Chorus]
