"Sleigh Ride" is a popular song usually associated with Christmas. It was originally written as an instrumental piece in 1946 by Leroy Anderson, who intended it to refer to any winter event, not specifically Christmas. Mitchell Parish added words later, as he did for several of Anderson's compositions. The most famous recording of the song is by the Boston Pops Orchestra, conducted by Arthur Fielder.
The song is featured as the first track on the album Merry Nickmas.
It is sung by Miranda Cosgrove, Victoria Justice, Ariana Grande, Jennette McCurdy, Max Schneider, Cymphonique Miller, Kendall Schmidt, James Maslow, Carlos Pena, Jr., Logan Henderson, Elizabeth Gillies, and Leon Thomas III.
Lyrics
- Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too
- Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
- Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoo hoo!"
- Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
- Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, let's go, let's look at the show
- We're riding in a wonderland of snow.
- Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, it's grand, just holding your hand
- We're gliding along with a song of a wintry fairy land
- Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we
- We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be
- Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two
- Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
- There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray
- It'll be the perfect ending a of perfect day
- We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop
- At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop. Pop! pop! pop!
- There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy
- When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie
- It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
- These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives!
- (First Stanza reprised)
- It's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
- (Last line repeated)
