City sidewalks, busy sidewalks Dressed in holiday style In the air there a feeling like Christmas Children laughing, people passing Meeting smile after smile And on every street corner you hear Silver bells, silver bells It Christmas time 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 big scene And above all the bustle you hear Silver bells, silver bells It Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, hear them ring Soon it will be Christmas day
