Count Basie - Jingle Bells lyrics

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 Cho: 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 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 ran into a drifted bank And there 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 at me as I there sprawling laid But quickly drove away Now the ground is white Go it while you're young Take the girls along And sing this sleighing song Just bet a bob-tailed bay Two-forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh
