(words & music by Ray Evans - Jay Livingston)
Silver bells, silver bells
It`s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
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
It`s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, 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
It`s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
