Monday, December 22: Christmas Favorites


We are stuck in Denver due to bad weather in Seattle. Am dreaming of the white Christmas we could be having at home, thinking of my favorite Christmas songs, and sharing them here for the next few days. This one is for my Elizabeth, no longer three years old and laughing in my lap while we sing this song - but still just as delightful (in her own, seriously serious, 20 year old way)!

Jingle Bell Rock
Lyric by Bobby Helms

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell rock!
