Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh

Through 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 tonight

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
