It Happened in Sun Valley Songtext
von Mel Tormé

Howdy folks, let′s go for a ride
Get your favorite one to sit by your side
Cuddle up in a sleigh
Giddyap nellie grey
And away we go

While you listen to the sleigh bells ring, you're yodeling to your baby
You′ll feel nice and warm, no matter how cold it may be

Take a look at little Jack and Jill, they ski down the hill there's a snowplow turn
And look, there's a spill, there′s a spill on the hill
When you′re down it's a thrill to get up again


Everybody ought to learn to ski, for that is how we first met
We were that Jack and Jill that came down a hill
When I looked at you my heart took a spill, took a spill on the hill
It′s thrill that I can't forget

It happened in Sun Valley, not so very long ago
There were sunbeams in the snow, and a twinkle in your eye
I remember, oh-so clearly, that you nearly passed me by
Then it happened in Sun Valley, when you slipped and fell, and so did I

I remember, oh-so clearly, that you nearly passed me by
Then, it happened in Sun Valley, when you slipped and fell, and so did I
Now every year we go back and then
We recall that fall and that moment when we were back on the hill
So we both take a spill and we′re Jack and Jill again
