Couplet 1

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 hear

Refrain

Silver bells silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling hear them ring
Soon it'll be Christmas day

Couplet 2

Strings of street lights even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home
With their treasures
Hear the snow crush see the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You hear

Refrain

Silver bells silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling hear them ring
Soon it'll be Christmas day

Refrain

Silver bells silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
