Rewriting a Christmas Classic

December 20, 2010 by datapig Leave a reply »

It’s Christmas week. Since most everyone will be on holiday this week, I won’t be posting any life-changing Excel and Access tips.

No…this week will be all about the power of Christmas…the spirit of giving…and the rest of that mumbo jumbo.

In another one of his poignant posts, J-Walk alludes to re-writing a classic show-tune.

I thought it might be fun, so I took a shot at rewriting the classic Christmas song ‘Sleigh Ride’

Sleigh Ride (Redux)

By Mike Alexander

I hear those bells a ring-a-ling

ding ding ding-a-ling doo.

Sometimes I ping my ding-a-ling

till it’s tingling too.

.
Some folks like sing sing sing-a-ling

Jing jing jing-a-lings doo.

Me, I like brand new shingling

and monkeys fling-a-ling poo.

.

That’s all I have so far.

Maybe I’ll finish it one day, and have one of my kids perform it at a talent show.
