City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of ChristmasChildren laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hearSilver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas DayStrings of streetlights, even stoplights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasuresHear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you'll hearSilver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas DayChildren laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hearSilver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas DaySoon it will be Christmas Day
