Sleigh Ride- Mel Torme

Lyrics written from memory. If there are any mistakes let me know!

Just hear those sleigh bells jingling ring- ting- tingling too!
Come on its lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you!

Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "yoo-hoo."
Come on its lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you!

Giddy up Giddy up giddy up lets go, lets look at the show.
We're riding in a wonderland of snow.

Giddy up giddy up giddy up its grand just holding your hand.
We're gliding along with the song of a wintery fairy land!

Our cheeks are nice and rosy, comfy cosy are we.
We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather with me.

Lets take that road before us and sing a chorous or two,
Come on its lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you!

There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Grey, it'l 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 watch the chestnuts pop! Popity Pop!

There's a happy feeling nothing in this world can buy,
as we pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie!

It'l nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things we'll remember off through our lives!

(Mel skats)

Lets take that road before us and sing a chorous or two,
Come on its lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you!

Thanks, Jguy365.

Wish I could be there to hear you guys 'live' but I'll be in Singapore.

Post a vid. and I'll sure be there to catch it online.

Have fun!

@7106798 Woe, Singapore is pretty darn far from here. lol. Don't know if I can get my hands on a recording of the concert or not... Depends if the director decides to record it and make copies. She did at our previous concert, so there's hope!

@Jguy365 Did I really put woe instead of whoa? Must have been up late...

[Jguy365]

I'm such a douche for putting in all those annotations! I'll remove them!

[7106798]

Tropical greetings from Singapore ! My all-time-favourite !

Nicely jazzed up with ol skool crooner Mel the man...get ready to celebrate Our Saviour's birth !

@7106798 We are playing this in the symphonic band at my high school. I tell ya, it's WAY more fun to listen to than to play. What a number!

I love the Family Guy version of this song. That is the only reason why I was looking for it!

What a singer, Mel Torme was the king of scat, melodious and always great.
