The Bell That Couldn't Jingle

Written by Burt Bacharach and Larry Kusik

Performed by Herb Alpert

A Christmas bell was crying then 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 nothing 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(jingle) it went jingling all the way
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(jingle) it went jingling all the way
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)
It went jingling all the way(it went jingling all the way)
It went jingling all the way(it went jingling all the way)
It went jingling all the way(it went jingling all the way)
It went jingling all the way(it went jingling all the way)
