This detail is included to paint a vivid picture of the horse pulling the sleigh in the winter scene described in the song.

Slleb elgnij It is a website that shows you an extract of the Jingle Bells song. Afterward, it tells you to play it again reversed. Unsuspecting, the viewer listens carefully to the strange lyrics, looking for a subliminal message. Suddenly, a face appears with a screaming sound affect, which scares the hell out of the viewers. Sometimes, they are obliged to pass it on for a prank or April Fools Day.
Rohant a hóban Az egy ló nyitott szán Járdal a mezők megyünk Nevetve végig Csengőkkel bob farok gyűrű Making szellemek fényes Milyen jó, hogy nevetni és énekelni A szánkózás dal ma este Ó, Jingle Bells, a Jingle Bells Jingle egészen Ó, milyen jó is vezetni Az egy ló nyitott szán Jingle Bells, a Jingle Bells Jingle egészen Ó, milyen jó is vezetni Az egy ló nyitott szán Egy-két nap ezelőtt Gondoltam tegyen egy kört És hamarosan Miss Fanny Bright Ült mellettem A ló volt, sovány és karcsú Balsors látszott a sok Kaptunk egy sodródott bank És akkor mi van upsot Ó, Jingle Bells, a Jingle Bells Jingle egészen Ó, milyen jó is vezetni Az egy ló nyitott szán Jingle Bells, a Jingle Bells Jingle egészen Ó, milyen jó is vezetni Az egy lovas szánkózás, igen nyitott Jingle Bells, a Jingle Bells Jingle egészen Ó, milyen jó is vezetni Az egy ló nyitott szán Jingle Bells, a Jingle Bells Jingle egészen Ó, milyen jó is vezetni Az egy ló nyitott szán
Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O'er the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bobtail ring Making spirits bright What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight! (chorus) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way. Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way; Oh! what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride And soon, Miss Fanny Bright Was seated by my side, The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot He got into a drifted bank And then we got upsot. (chorus) A day or two ago, The story I must tell I went out on the snow, And on my back I fell; A gent was riding by In a one-horse open sleigh, He laughed as there I sprawling lie, But quickly drove away. (chorus) Now the ground is white Go it while you're young, Take the girls tonight and sing this sleighing song; Just get a bobtailed bay Two forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! you'll take the lead. (chorus)
In the 1920s women's fashions changed drastically. Instead of wearing their hair long, women started wearing it cut short. They called this "bobbed" hair. The word "bob" meant "cut short" even before then, where it was used to describe horses whose tails had been cut short: see the lyrics to "Camptown Races" ("I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag") and "Jingle Bells" ("Bells on Bob-Tail ring")
