City sidewalks, busy side walks,
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
It's Christmas time 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
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all the bustle you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring -a -ling, ring -a -ling
Hear them ring, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas Day
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring -a -ling, ring -a -ling
Hear them ring, soon it will be
Soon it will be Christmas day you
