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 hear      (Silver bells)   Silver bells   (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 street lights even stop, lights blink a bright red and green   As the shoppers rush home with their treasures   Hear the snow crush, see the kids bunch   This is Santa's big scene and above all this bustle you hear      (Silver bells)   Silver bells
