You know it, you love it! One of the most popular American Christmas songs, here are the lyrics to Jingle Bells, written in 1857 by James Pierpont, and an mp3 recording by Dave Maddock of Project Gutenberg …
Jingle Bells
Dashing thro’ the snow,
In a one-horse open sleigh;
O’er the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tail ring,
Making spirits bright,
Oh what sport to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.Chorus:
Jingle bells, Jingle bells,
Jingle all the way;
Oh! What joy it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! What joy 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 seemed his lot,
He got into a drifted bank,
And we, we got up-sot.Chorus
A day or two ago,
The story I must tell
I went out in 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.Chorus
Now the ground is white
Go it while you’re young,
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bob tailed bay
Two forty as his speed.
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack, you’ll take the lead.Chorus
