In a one-horse open sleigh

Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.
Rushing through the snow
On an open sleigh drawn by a horse,
We drive through the fields
Laughing all the way.
Sleigh bells are ringing
Lifting our spirits
How fun it is to ride and sing
Sleigh song.
Chorus:
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.
Chorus:
Ring the bells
Call all the way!
Oh what a great ride
On an open sleigh pulled by a horse, hey
Ring the bells
Call all the way!
Oh what a great ride
On an open sleigh pulled by a horse.
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 upset.
A day or two ago
I thought about taking a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright,
She sat next to me.
The horse was thin and skinny
It seemed that misfortune was her fate.
She got stuck in a snowdrift,
And we capsized.
Chorus 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 at me as
I there sprawling laid
But quickly drove away.
A day or two ago
The story I have to tell
I went out into the snow
And fell on his back.
A gentleman passed by
In an open sleigh pulled by a horse,
He laughed at me, at
As I sprawled on the ground
But then he quickly left.
Chorus Chorus
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.
Now the earth is white
Go while you are young
Take the girls with you
And sing a sled song.
Take a swift bay,
with a trimmed tail,
Harness her to an open sleigh
and crack the whip! You will become a leader.
