Sleigh Ride
(Leroy Anderson/Mitchell Parish)
As recorded by The Ronettes
Also recorded by The Carpenters
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling,
ring ting tingling too
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
and friends are calling "yoo hoo",
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
Giddyup, giddyup,
giddyup, let's go,
Let's look at the show,
We're riding
in a wonderland of snow.
Giddyup, giddyup, giddyup, it's grand,
Just holding your hand,
We're gliding
along with a 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 Christmas party at the
home of Farmer Gray
It'll be the perfect ending a of 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!
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling,
ring ting tingling too
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
and friends are calling "yoo hoo",
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
