Silver bells (silver bells), 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 every street corner, you'll hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmastime in the city
Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling), hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of streetlights, 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'll hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmastime in the city
Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling), hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day, yeah
Hark! Hear the bells ringing
Ring-a-ling-a-ling, hear them ring, yeah
Silver bells (silver bells), oh, silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmastime in the city (it's Christmastime in the city)
Ring-a-ling (ring-a-ling), hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day (it's Christmas day)
Soon it will be Christmas day, hey
