Sleigh Ride

=============

Mitchell Parish, Leroy Anderson 1948



Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing

Ring ting tingle-ing too

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you



Outside the snow is falling

And friends are calling "You Hoo"

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you



Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's go

Let's look at the snow

We're riding in a wonderland of snow



Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand

Just holding your hand

We're gliding along with the song

Of a wintry fairy land



Our cheeks are nice and rosy

And comfy cozy are we

We're snuggled up together like two

Birds of a feather would be



Let's take the road before us

And sing a chorus or two

Come on, it's lovely weather

For a sleigh ride together with you



There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray

It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day

We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop

At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop

Pop! Pop! Pop!



There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy

When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie

It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives

These wonderful things are the things

We remember all through our lives
