"Silver Bells" lyrics
(originally by Bob Hope and Marilyn Maxwell)
It's Christmas time in the city
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air, there's a feeling of Christmas, mm
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner, you'll hear
Them silver bells, silver bells (Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring (Ring-a-ling-a-ring-a-ling, ring-a-ling-a-hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
Strings of streetlights
Even stoplights
Blink a bright red and green (Bright red and green)
As the shoppers rush home with their treasure
Hear the snow crunch
Hear the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all the bustle, you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells (Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring (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, mm
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner, you'll hear
Them silver bells, silver bells (Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring (Ring-a-ling-a-ring-a-ling, ring-a-ling-a-hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
Strings of streetlights
Even stoplights
Blink a bright red and green (Bright red and green)
As the shoppers rush home with their treasure
Hear the snow crunch
Hear the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all the bustle, you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells (Silver bells, silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring (Ring-a-ling, hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas Day
