Sleigh Ride
I love riding in an old-fashioned sleigh
Tightly bundled against the frosty air,
A fine snowy winter evening getaway.
The two of us snuggling giddy and gay,
Enjoying ourselves without a single care
I love riding in an old-fashioned sleigh.
Listening to harness bells jangle and sway
Occasional snorting of the dappled mare
A fine snowy winter evening getaway.
An exquisite ending to our perfect day
Snowflakes falling softly onto our hair
I love riding in an old-fashioned sleigh.
So enjoyable a ride we’d love to stay
But others are waiting for turns over there
A fine snowy winter evening getaway.
We’re delighted by the children at play
In the snow, and still, they stop to stare,
I love riding in an old-fashioned sleigh
A fine snowy winter evening getaway.
