Jingle Bells
Words & Music by James Pierpont, 1859

1.)  Dashing through the snow, in a one horse open sleigh,
O'er 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 to-night


(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



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 upsot (chorus)


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 lie,
but quickly drove away (chorus)


4.)  Now the ground is white, go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight, and sing this sleighing song
Just get a bobtailed bay two forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
and crack! you'll take the lead (chorus)
