Story Behind The Song
I sing all over Florida for kids who have never seen the snow. I wanted to write a fun song with a familiar feel that they could sing at Christmastime. They'll never see a one horse-open sleigh, so I wanted to be realistic for them.

Lyrics
I never felt the snow
Melting on my face.
I never got to see
A beautiful snowflake.
I live in Florida
The weather?s rather warm.
I wonder what it would be like
To play in a snowstorm.
CHORUS: Oh Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way.
Mommy take me to the snow, so I can run and play, Hey. (repeat)
At school I made a flake.
We cut and snipped just so.
I opened up the folds
And made a piece of snow!
It wasn?t very cold
And certainly not wet.
But Mommy says that it will be
The only snow I get.
CHORUS
It could be that some day
We?ll drive up US One
And keep on heading north
To find some winter fun.
And when I find the snow
I hope you?ll come along,
We?ll make a big fat snowman
And sing our happy song!
CHORUS
