Verse 1

Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh,
O’er the fields we go, laughing all the way,
Bells on bobtails ring, making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight, oh

CHORUS:

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey,
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
COh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.

verse 2

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, we got up-sot, oh

verse 3

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 laid, but quickly drove away, oh

verse 4:

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, Oh
