Lyrics by Mitchell Parish
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ringting tingleing, 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.
Giddy-yap, giddy-yap,giddy-yap, let’s go,
Let’s look at the show,
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 a song of a wintery fairyland,
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 that road before us and sing a chorus or two,
Come on, it’s lovely weather for a SLEIGH RIDE together with you.
INTERLUDE
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 thru our lives!
