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
String of streetlights, even stoplights, 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, the bustle you 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
