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}

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

{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

Whooo, whoooo there now, steady, easy, whooo, everybody out.
