Ring the Bell
DJ Ötzi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house
Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's happy hour
All my money, every penny
I've been spending on Kill Kenny's
Ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house

"Yeah, it's Christmas time
Come on, let's ring the bells
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
To all the people in the world"

Down the fertile deep green rely
I saw the love of my life
I know her name was Sally
And I swore to be my wife
(?)
She was suddenly away
And I've been drinking nothing but beer since the day

Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house
Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's happy hour
All my money, every penny
I've been spending on Kill Kenny's
Ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house

Like a morning in the spring time
Like a rose that springs in June
So was my love for little Sally
Like a song played in tune
But like the way that blows in autumn
She was suddenly away
And I've been drinking nothing but beer since the day

Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house (on the house)
Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's happy hour (happy hour)
All my money, every penny
I've been spending on Kill Kenny's
Ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house

Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong
On the house
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong
Happy hour

"Yeah, come on, it's time for 'Ring the Bell'
It's Christmas time"

Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house (on the house)
Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's happy hour (happy hour)
All my money, every penny
I've been spending on Kill Kenny's
Ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house

Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house (on the house)
Just ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's happy hour (happy hour)
All my money, every penny
I've been spending on Kill Kenny's
Ring the bell
Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house

Just ring the bell




Ring-a-ling-dong-ding
It's on the house
