Soon it will be Christmas day
Blink of bright red and green
Silver bells, silver bells
Silver bells, silver bells
Hear the snow crunch
Meeting smile after smile
It's Christmas time in the city
This is Santa's big scene
Strings of streetlights, even stoplights
Ring-a-ling hear them ring
And above all the bustle you'll hear
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Of Christmas
It's Christmas time in the city
Children laughing, people passing
Soon it will be Christmas day
As the shoppers rush home
In the air there's a feeling
And on every street corner you'll hear
See the kids bunch
With their treasures
