Ring tingaling, tingaling
tingaling
Jingle the bells in a rag.
Join in their song
as they're swinging along,
mixed in a musical drag,
you'll sigh again,
just to hear that refrain,
wait, they'll be playing it soon.
Oh, what a treat!
such a sweet melodious tune...
Hear those raggy chimes
How their music climbs
Into your heart
until you start
Dancing just to keep time.
Hear those silver tones,
shake your lazy bones
don't hesitate
come syncopate it, honey,
ringing a ragtime rhyme.

Won't you jingle those bells
till that melody swells
hear the story it tells,
I love you,
love you, little honey,
I've been waiting so long
just to sing you love's song
with a ding a ling long
so ring those ragtime chimes!

Won't you jingle those bells
till that melody swells
hear the story it tells,
I love you,
love you, little honey,
I've been waiting so long
just to sing you love's song
with a ding a ling long
so ring those ragtime chimes!

Ring tingaling, tingaling
tingaling
Jingle the bells in a rag.
Join in their song
as they're swinging along,
mixed in a musical drag,
you'll sigh again,
just to hear that refrain,
wait, they'll be playing it soon.
Oh, what a treat!
such a sweet melodious tune...
Hear those raggy chimes
How their music climbs
Into your heart
until you start
Dancing just to keep time.
Hear those silver tones,
shake your lazy bones
don't hesitate
come syncopate it, honey,
ringing a ragtime rhyme.

Won't you jingle those bells
till that melody swells
hear the story it tells,
I love you,
love you, little honey,
I've been waiting so long
just to sing you love's song
with a ding a ling long
so ring those ragtime chimes!

Won't you jingle those bells
till that melody swells
hear the story it tells,
I love you,
love you, little honey,
I've been waiting so long
just to sing you love's song
with a ding a ling long
so ring those ragtime chimes!
