"Silver Bells" lyrics
(originally by Bob Hope and Marilyn Maxwell)
Silver bells, silver bells
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
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
Hear them sing
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Strings of streetlights
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'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 sing
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
City sidewalks
Busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air, there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
Ring-a-ling
Hear them sing
Hear them sing
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
Silver bells
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
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
Hear them sing
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Strings of streetlights
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'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 sing
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
City sidewalks
Busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air, there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
Ring-a-ling
Hear them sing
Hear them sing
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Soon, it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
Silver bells
