22 Jingle Bells Text: James Lord Pierpont (1850) Text und Melodie: James Lord Pierpont (1850) 2. A day or two ago I thought I’d take a ride, And soon Miss Fannie Bright was seated by my side. The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seemed his lot, He got into a drifted bank and we got upsot. Refrain 3. A day or two ago, The story I must tell I went out on the snow, And on my back I fell; A gent was riding by In a one-horse open sleigh, He laughed as there I sprawling lie, But quickly drove away. Refrain 4. Now the ground is white, go it while you’re young, Take the girls tonight and sing this sleighing song. Just get a bobtailed bay, two-forty for his speed, Then hitch him to an open sleigh, and crack! You’ll take the lead. Refrain
