Howdy folks, let's go for a ride
Get your favorite one to sit by your side
Cuddle up in a sleigh, gitty up, Nellie Gray, and away we go
While you listen to the sleighbells ring
You're yodeling to your baby
You'll feel nice and warm
No matter how cold it may be
Take a look at little Jack and Jill
They ski down a hill
That's a snowplough turn
And look, there's a spill,
There's a spill on a hill
When you're down it's a thrill
To go up again
Ev'rybody ought to learn to ski
For that is how we first met
We were that Jack and Jill
That came down a hill
When I looked at you
My heart took a spill
Took a spill on a hill
It's a thrill that I can't forget...
It happened in Sun Valley
Not so very long ago
There were sunbeams in the snow
And a twinkle in your eyes
I remember oh! so clearly
That you nearly passed me by
Then it happened in Sun Valley
When you slipped and fell, and so did I...
It happened in Sun Valley
Not so very long ago
There were sunbeams in the snow
And I fell in love when I saw that
Twinkle in your eyes
I remember oh! so clearly
That you nearly passed me by
Then it happened in Sun Valley
When you slipped and fell, and so did I...
Now ev'ry year we go back and then
We recall that fall and that moment when
We were there on a hill
So we both take a spill
And we're Jack and Jill
Again!
