Silver bells, silver bells,
it's Christmas time in the city,
ring a ling, hear them ring,
soon it will be Christmas day.
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,
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,
this is Santa's big day
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.
