The second verse of the song "Jingle Bells" is:

Get a bob-tailed bay,
Two-forty for his speed.
Then hitch him to an open sleigh
And you will take the lead.

What is a bob-tailed bay, what is two -forty (for whom?), and what does all of this mean?
 
Sorry I couldn't find a direct answer, but I found this:

Hope I helped :)
