Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
The bells are jingling,
Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Oh, come with me!
Off to grandma's house
Where we will see it;
Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
The Christmas tree!

Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
In coats and mittens,
Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
While sleighbells ring,
All wrapped up and snug
As little kittens,
Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
We laugh and sing.

Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
The lights a-twinkling,
Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
So bright will be;
Carols we will sing
As we dance 'round it,
Ring-a-ling-a-ling,
The Christmas tree!
