Fred Waring & His Pennsylvanians - Ring Those Christmas Bells (Capitol Records 1959)

Another delightful Christmas gem arranged by Hawley Ades.  Fredrick Malcolm Waring (June 9, 1900 – July 29, 1984) was a popular musician, bandleader and radio-television personality, sometimes referred to as "America's Singing Master" and "The Man Who Taught America How to Sing." He was also a promoter, financial backer and eponym of the Waring Blendor, the first modern electric blender on the market.

Merry Christmas!

Jingo bells, jingle bells
Jingo all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh hey

Jingo bells, jingle bells
Jingo all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh

Merry, Merry Christmas
Merry, Merry Christmas

Oh ring those Christmas bells
Ring those Christmas bells
While they chime, we'll have a happy time

Some folks like to hear a Christmas Song
But I like Christmas bells that go ding dong
Jingle-jangle, ding-a-ling or just ding-dong
I love to hear 'em ring

Oh, ring those Christmas bells
Ring those Christmas bells
While they chime, we'll have a happy time
So ring those Christmas bells

Up above the stars are clear and bright
While all around the snow is soft and white
Santa and his reindeer soon will be in sight
And you will hear him sing

I like holly reeves and mistletoe
And fire places that are all aglow
Children singing Christmas carols in the snow
But best I like the bell

Oh, the music of an open sleigh
When every jolly jingle seems to say
Happy, happy, happy, happy holiday
Come on and join the fun

Oh, ring, ring, ring those Christmas bells
Ring, ring, ring those Christmas bells
While they chime, we'll have a happy time
So ring those Christmas bells

Ding dong, ding dong

Merry, Merry Christmas
Happy, Happy New Year

Merry, Merry Christmas
Happy, Happy New Year
