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!
Oh what fun it is to ride,
In a one-horse open sleigh!

Dashing through the snow ( jingle, jing, jing, jingle! )
In a one-horse open sleigh ( jingle, jing, jing, jingle! )
O'er the fields we go ( o'er the fields, jingle, jingle! )
Laughin' all the way!
Bells on Bob-Tail ring ( jingle, jing, jing, jingle! )
Makin' spirits bright ( la, la, la la! )
What fun it is to ride an' sing,
A sleighing song tonight!

Oh! 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!
Oh what fun it is to ride,
In a one-horse open sleigh!


A day or two ago ( A day or two ago . . . )
I thought I'd take a ride ( I thought I'd take a ride . . . )
And soon Miss Fanny Bride ( And soon Miss Fanny Bride . . . )
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! 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!
( Oh what fun it is to ride . . . )
In a one-horse open sleigh
Hey!


Now the ground is white ( jingle, jing, jing, jingle! )
Go it while you're young ( jingle, jing, jing, jingle! )
Take the girls tonight ( Take the girls tonight . . . )
And sing this sleighing song
Just get a Bob-Tailed Nag ( jingle, jing, jing, jingle! )
Two-forty for his speed
Then hitch ˜em to an open sleigh,
An' crack you'll take the lead!

Oh! 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!
Oh what fun it is to ride . . .
In a one-horse open sleigh!
