Lyrics Over the River and Through the Woods - Michael Silverman Jazz Piano Trio

Over the River and Through the Woods

Over the river
And through the woods
To Grandmother’s house
We go
The horse knows the way
To carry the sleigh
Through white
And drifted snow
Over the river
And through the woods
Oh
How the wind does blow
It stings the toes
And bites the nose
As over the ground we go
Over the river
And through the woods
To have a full day of play
Oh, hear the bells
Ringing ting-a-ling-ling
For it is Christmas Day
Over the river
And through the woods
Trot fast my dapple gray
Spring o’er the ground
Just like a hound
For this is Christmas Day
Over the river
And through the woods
And straight through
The barnyard gate
It seems that we go
So dreadfully slow
It is so hard to wait
Over the river
And through the woods
Now Grandma’s cap I spy
Hurrah for fun
The pudding’s done
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie
