Jingle Bell Rock
Brendalee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in jingle bell square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one horse sleigh

Giddy up, jingle horse pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and mingle in a jinglin' beat
That's the jingle bell rock

Jing, jing, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in jingle bell square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
We're gonna rock the night away
Jingle bell time it's a swell time
To go glidin' in a one horse sleigh, hey

Giddy up, jingle horse pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and mingle in a jinglin' beat




That's the jingle bell, that's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell rock

I love this just as much as Bobby Helms version. Reminds me of being a kid and we lived in a 3-story apartment building and family lived on each floor so we were up and down those stairs all through the CHristmas season partying and celebrating and just being together.
