Jingle bells

Dashing trough the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh
Over fields we go, laughing all the way
Bells on bob-tail ring, making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride ans ding A sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells, Jingle bells, jingle all the way
O what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
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
Ans soon Miss Fannie 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

Refrein

Now the ground is whit, go it while you're young
Take the girls tonight, and sing this sleighing song
Just get a bobtailed bay, two forty for his speed
Then hitch him to an open sleigh, and crack! you'll take the lead
 

Refrein

(Amerikaans, J. Perpont, 1857)
