Jingle Bells
Committed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Oh, 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

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 got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot

Oh, 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 yeah

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

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣4οΈβƒ£πŸŽ‰
- If we try not to argue as much in the comment section this year as we did last year I'd appreciate it, the comments seemed to get more heated than any other year, just random replies to random old comments and 20 new replies randomly. I don't really want to see the strings of abuse being hauled back and fourth... I delete most of the stuff because its not great to look at and just triggers more replies so maybe just act normally like the comments were before. πŸ’€
