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 hear:

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

Strings of street lights, 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 scene
And above all this 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.

Soon it will be Christmas day.
