THE BELL THAT COULDN'T JINGLE (Burt Bacharach) A Christmas bell was cryin' And Santa heard it say I just can't seem to jingle And I can't go on the sleigh Then Santa soon discovered The reason that it cried The bell that couldn't jingle It had nothin' there inside Then Santa said Jack Frost will bring my Christmas gift to you And on Christmas Eve you'll jingle just like you were brand new Then Jack Frost froze a teardrop So each time that it swayed The bell that couldn't jingle It went jingling all the way Oh jingle bell jingle bell jingle all the way The bell that couldn't jingle It went jingling all the way Then Santa said Jack Frost will bring my Christmas gift to you And on Christmas Eve you'll jingle just like you were brand new Then Jack Frost froze a teardrop So each time that it swayed The bell that couldn't jingle It went jingling all the way Oh jingle bell jingle bell jingle all the way The bell that couldn't jingle It went jingling all the way It went jingling all the way It went jingling all the way
