Lyrics

[Intro]
Season's greetings, hey, let's have some fun
Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
Dashing through the snow with Santa Claus
Oh
[Chorus]
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride (Be on the look out)
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
[Verse 1]
Every Christmas Eve I could never get to bed
'Cause from the clouds above I hear sounds of jingle bells
Be on the look out
When Santa picks me up for a
[Chorus]
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
For a sleigh ride
Sleigh ride (I hear the sounds of jingle bells)
[PostChorus]
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Santa's coming
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Santa's coming
[Verse 2]
I've been good all year to make sure Santa comes
No, the presents I don't want, just a ride with old Blitzen
And Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Rudolph
[Chorus]
On a sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride (I hear the sounds of jingle bells)
[PostChorus]
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Santa's coming
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Santa's coming
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Santa's coming
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Santa's coming
[Bridge]
Season's greetings, hey, let's have some fun
Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
Dashing through the snow with Santa Claus
Oh (And you can look up in the sky this Christmas)
[Chorus]
Sleigh ride (Uh)
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride (Uh)
Sleigh ride
[Verse 3]
I wanna ride all night, but the ride goes oh so fast
Everybody
I'm trying to think of a way to make the sleigh ride last
Please don't pull me off of this
[Chorus]
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride (I hear the sounds of jingle bells)
[PostChorus]
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Santa's coming
Santa's coming
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Santa's coming
Santa's coming
Santa's coming (Santa Claus)
[Chorus]
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride (We're gonna have fun when Santa comes)
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
[Instrumental]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
[Chorus]
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
Sleigh ride
[PostChorus]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
[Outro]
Sleigh ride
