1)
Over the river and through the woods,
To grandmother's house we go;
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh,
Through (the) 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.
2)
Over the river and through the woods,
To have a first-rate play;
Oh, hear the bells ring, "Ting-a-ling-ling!"
For it is Christmas Day!
Over the river and through the woods,
Trot fast, my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground,
Just like a hound!
For this is Christmas Day.
3)
Over the river and through the woods,
And straight through the barnyard gate.
It seems we go so definitely slow
It is so hard to wait!
Over the river and through the woods,
Now Grandmother's cap I spy!
Hurray for fun! The pudding's done
Hurray for pumpkin pie!
