Seasons Greetings to all, And let us sing together... Dashing through the snow In a one horse open sleigh O'er the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bob tail ring Making spirits bright What fun it is to laugh and sing A sleighing song tonight (chorus) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. ***
Our neighbours started putting up their decorations in like early September. It was kind of akward because Halloween was coming up and kids usually rely on decorations to figure out whether or not people in the house are passing out candy. So the kids weren't sure if the Christmas decorated houses were passing out candy or not.
Jingle Bells: 2nd verse So... we hope that you are singing with us, the most often sung (and remembered) Xmas song, "Jingle Bells". Here comes the second verse; A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride And soon Miss Fanny Bright Was seated by my side, The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot He got into a drifted bank And then we got upsot (chorus) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. ***
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping on your nose Yuletide carols being sung by a choir, And folks dressed up like Eskimos. Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe, Help to make the season bright. Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow, Will find it hard to sleep tonight. They know that Santa's on his way; He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh. And every mother's child is going to spy, To see if reindeer really know how to fly. And so I'm offering this simple phrase, To kids from one to ninety-two, Although its been said many times, many ways, A very Merry Christmas to you
'Christmas Song' by Nat King Cole Hi wilfredlgf, Yes... Let us make the season bright. And you have just caused me to pop in Nat King Cole's Xmas CD to listen to his version of 'Christmas Song'. And at the the end of his singing, the tune of 'Jingle Bells' was also included.
Jingle Bells: 3rd verse And then... after receiving a few greetings from PM@BC and from Facebook... Here comes the third verse; 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. (chorus) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. ***
Jingle Bells: 4th verse Here comes the 4th verse; Now the ground is white Go it while you're young, Take the girls tonight and sing this sleighing song; Just get a bob tailed bay Two forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! you'll take the lead. (chorus) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. ***

"Jingle Bells" was the first song broadcast from space Hey Oldhand, OK... So, there is no snow in Singapore. There's no snow in Space either. But did you know... "Jingle Bells" was the first song broadcast from space, in a Christmas-themed prank by Gemini 6 astronauts Tom Stafford and Wally Schirra, on 16-December-1965.
Have a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year 2008 !!! Yeah !!! ... Best Wishes, 'Tis the season to be Jolly.
