Dashing through the snow, in a one horse open sleigh,
O’er the fields we go, laughing all the way;
Bells on bobtail ring, making spirits bright;
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight!

Refrain:
Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh!
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 I thought I’d take a ride,
And soon Miss Fannie Bright was seated by my side.
The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seem’d his lot,
He got into a drifted bank, and we, we got upsot.

Refrain

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

Refrain
