City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear
Silver bells
(Silver bells)
Silver bells
(Silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
(Ring-a-ling)
Just hear them ring
(Hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
(Strings of street lights, even stoplights)
(Blink a bright red and green)
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
(Hear the snow crunch)
(See the kids bunch)
(This is Santa's big scene)
And above all this bustle you'll hear
Silver bells
(Silver bells)
Silver bells
(Silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Silver bells
(Silver bells)
Silver bells
(Silver bells)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
