(Silver bells, silver bells)
(Soon it will be Christmas day.)

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 ev'ry street corner you'll hear

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

Strings of street lights
(Even stop lights)
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 scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city (in the city)
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

Soon it will be Christmas day...
