A story of a Christmas bell
Who used to shine and chime and ring
And why they call him Ding -a -ling
But then he fell and broke
And he began to ring of key.
Now they call him Ding -a -ling
because he has a funny ring
And doesn't fit his note to wear
Ding -a -ling the Christmas bear
The other bears met secretly
And they heard one say in the relocate
He could ruin our Christmas sound
And we don't want him hangin' round
He overheard their secret vote
And walked away with a lock in his note
The saddest bell you've ever seen
The Christmas bell called Ding -a -ling
They all call him Ding -a -ling,
Because he has a funny ring,
And doesn't it is snow to wear,
Ding -a -ling the Christmas bear.
The snow was falling in the square,
When the children found him there,
And placed him on the Christmas tree
For everyone in town to see
As Christmas Eve came to the town
A blinding snow was coming down
And ding -a -ling heard someone say
Old Santa's sure to lose his way
The thought occurred to Ding -a -ling
to ring as loud as he could ring
And when old Santa heard the sound,
they invited him into the town
Now there's children shout and sing
and everyone loves Ding -a -ling
So everything has turned out well
For Ding -a -ling the Christmas Bell
