[Intro]
Every street corner you'll hear, you can hear
[Chorus]
Silver bells (ooh), silver bells (ooh)
It's Christmas time in the city (ooh)
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas Day
[Verse 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'll hear, you can hear
[Chorus]
Silver bells (ooh), silver bells (ooh)
It's Christmas time in the city (ooh)
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas Day
[Verse 2]
Strings of streetlights, even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids rush
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you'll hear, you can hear
[Chorus 2]
Silver bells, the corner Santa Claus
Silver bells, is busy now because
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, you'll hear it in the air
Hear them ring, you'll hear it everywhere
Soon it will be Christmas Day
Very soon it will be Christmas Day
