On a one-horse open sleigh, The story I must tell Over the fields we go, I went out on the snow Laughing all the way; And on my back I fell; Bells on bob-tail ring, A gent was riding by Making spirits bright, In a one-horse open sleigh, What fun it is to ride and sing He laughed as there A sleighing song tonight I sprawling lie, Jingle bells, jingle bells, But quickly drove away. Jingle all the way! Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, O what fun it is to ride Jingle all the way! In a one-horse open sleigh What fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. A day or two ago, I thought I'd take a ride, Now the ground is white And soon Miss Fanny Bright Go it while you're young, Was seated by my side; Take the girls tonight The horse was lean and lank; And sing this sleighing song; Misfortune seemed his lot; Just get a bob-tailed bay He got into a drifted bank, Two-forty as his speed And we, we got upsot. Hitch him to an open sleigh Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, And crack! you'll take the lead. Jingle all the way! Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, What fun it is to ride Jingle all the way! In a one-horse open sleigh. What fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.
