City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there’s a feeing
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 Christmastime in the City
Ring a ling (ring a ling)
Hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
(ring a ling)

Strings of street lights,
even stop lights
Blinker 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)
It’s Christmastime in the City
Ring a ling (ring a ling)
Hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
Soon it will be Christmas Day
