[Chorus:]
Silver bells… Silver Be-aye-lllss
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling... hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas.. daaayyy

[Verse 1:]
City sidewalk. [u-huh]
Busy sidewalk [u-huh]
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there’s a feeling of christmas… [in the city it’s christmas time]
Children laughing... [u-huh]
People passing... [u-huh]
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you’ll hear [in the city it’s Christmas time]

[Chorus:]
Silver bells, (Silver bells) Silver bells, (silver bells)
It's Christmas time, in the city {in the city x2]
Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling)
Hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas dddaaayy

[Verse 2:]
Strings of streetlights [u-huh]
Even stop lights [u-huh]
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures [in the city it’s christmas time]
Hear the snow crunch [u-huh]
See the kids rush [u-huh]
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you'll hear [in the city it’s christmas time]

[Chorus:]
Silver bells, (Silver bells) Silver bells, (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city [in the city x2]
Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling)
Hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmaaaaassss dddaaayyyy
[in the city it’s christmas time[x2]
Haa..aa… Christmas…
[in the city it’s Christmas time]
In the city..
