Jingle Bell Rock
Blake Shelton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell twist
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go riding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell rock
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go riding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell rock.
The lyrics to Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's "Jingle Bell Rock" describe the joyous sounds and activities of the holiday season.

The chorus repeats the idea that this is the right time to "rock the night away" and ride in a one-horse sleigh. The song ends with the energetic suggestion to "mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet" and join in the jingle bell rock.

CHRISTMAS LOVE SONG = 2021 *
Christmas is coming and I'm all alone
With no one to snuggle at night.
My wineglass is empty to help dull desire
To kiss you by soft candlelight.
A rare pearl of value, you don't leave alone
Or someone will steal them from you.
After they've gone and flown far away
It's hard to know just what to do.
I'm watching my neighbors hang lights on their tree
With tinsel and striped candy cane.
I took you for granted and didn't hug enough
And now I must suffer my pain.
Lord, I'm so lonely; I wish I could die
Then be born to relive again.
I realize the value of someone to love
And the danger of my selfish sin.
There's a ring on my phone and a knock at the door
Which do I dare go for?
If neither is you, I'll break down and cry
And again pound my fist on the floor.
I run down the hall and the doorknob turns
As the swirling snow rides on the wind.
There, in my doorway, it's the face I love
Such a beautiful present to send.
Now, I am happy and dancing around
With a permanent smile on my face.
As children are singing their Christmas love songs
And the world is a wonderful place.
THANK YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE IN YOUR HEART !
