The famous Christmas Carol, Jingle Bells was written by James Lord Pierport in 1850 in Medford, Massachusetts and was published in 1857. The original title of the Christmas Carol was “One Horse Open Sleigh”. The song was originally intended to be a song for the Thanksgiving and not for Christmas Day.

World Christmas Traditions proudly presents to you the modern lyrics of the Christmas Carol so that we all have some time to memorize the song before Christmas Day comes.

JINGLE BELLS

(LYRICS of the Christmas Carol)

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
