Sleigh Ride Lyrics

Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring-ting-tingling too
A-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-up, giddy-up, giddy-up let's go (let's go)
Let's look at the show
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up, it's grand (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 close together like two birds of a feather would be
Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two
A-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 where we'll watch the chestnuts pop: Pop-pop-pop
There's a happy feeling (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
These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives
Hey

Together with you
Za-doo-da, doo-doo-da, doo-doo-ee

Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up let's go
Let's look at the show
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up, it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're gliding along with a song of a wintry fairy land
Oh, it's just nice and rosy and comfy-cozy are we
We've snuggled close 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
