City sidewalks, busy sidewalks Dressed in holiday style In the air There's a feeling of Christmas Children laughing People pa**ing Meeting smile after smile And on every street corner you'll hear Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them ring Soon it will be Christmas day Strings of street lights Even stop lights Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures Hear the snow crunch See the kids bunch What a wonderful scene And above all this bustle You'll hear Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them ring Soon it will be Christmas day Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them ring Soon it will be Christmas day
