two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Join hands and circle to the left, around that ring you go
Reverse back in a single file, go mushing through the snow
All 4 ladies backtrack, meet partners box the gnat
Then pull by, left allemande, grand right & left like that
Singing jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Swing your lady round and round, then promenade I say
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

1 & 3 go up and back, dosado around
Make a right hand star and turn it once, go once
around that town
Turn that corner by the left, and your partner right hand round
Then allemande left that corner girl, grand right & left around
It's a grand old right and left around, keeping spirits gay
Meet your partner box the gnat, pull by and the corners swing
Promenade that lady round the ring, keeping spirits bright
Oh what fun it is to dance, our sleighing song tonight
