Lyrics
1. Dearie, hear those sleigh bells chime
Don’t you know it’s sleigh ride time?
Can’t you hear that noise outside?
Hear those boys and girlies yell
Listen to that big cow bell
Everybody’s going on the ride
“Hurry up there” hear them cry
All aboard! Away we fly!
CHORUS
Come on, dearie, for that old sleigh ride
Come on, dearie, cuddle by my side
Whip up those horses, what’s the matter boys?
Shout out everybody, make a lot of noise
Jingle, jingle, jingle, hear the sleigh bells ring
Everybody, all together start to sing
Because it’s Winter, Winter
In the good old Winter time
Everybody’s happy by their sweetheart’s side
On a good old time sleigh ride
2. On a sleigh ride, Gee! What fun!
Mile a minute, going some
As across the hills we fly
Move up closer to my side
This is just a spoony ride
See those snowflakes falling from the sky
Don’t you mind the hail or snow
Snuggle up when cold winds blow
