Verse I
Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh,
O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way.
Bells on bobtails ring, making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight. Oh!

Chorus
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Verse II
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. Oh!

Chorus
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Verse III
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 lay but quickly drove away. Oh!

Chorus
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Verse IV
Now the ground is white, go it while you're young
Take the girls along and sing this sleighing song
Just bet a bobtailed bay, Two forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack! You'll take the lead. Oh!

Chorus
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
