Tuneful Tuesday - Jingle Bells

Christmas just wouldn't be Christmas without the sound of Sleigh bells which have become synonymous with the arrival of Father Christmas or Santa Claus.  The song, "Jingle Bells" captures this excitement and is loved by children of all ages!

Here's a reminder of the lyrics and a randomly selected youtube video.

If you have a song that holds memories or that you simply want to share with other people let me know, I may just feature it.







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. 

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 laugh and sing 
A sleighing song tonight! 

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. 

Now the ground is white 
Go it while you're young, 
Take the girls tonight 
and sing this sleighing song; 
Just get a bobtailed bay 
Two forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh 
And crack! you'll take the lead. 

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 Jingle Jingle all the way; 
Oh! what fun it is to ride 
In a one-horse...

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle bells,

Oh! what fun it is to ride 
In a one-horse open sleigh. 

Jingle bells, jingle bells, 
Jingle all the way
Jingle bells!
