Christmas Favourites Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing 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 jingle in a jingle beat
That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

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

Giddy-up, jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock




Mix and jingle in a jingle beat
That's the jingle bell rock
