Jingle Bells

Versurile originale

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh

Over the fields we go

Laughing all the way.

Bells on bob tails ring

Making spirits bright

Oh what fun

it is to laugh and sing

A sleighing song tonight.

|: corul :|

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way!

O what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh.

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 got into a drifted bank

And then we — we got upsot.

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,

|: corul :|

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 is his speed

Hitch him to an open sleigh

And crack! You'll take the lead.
