(Jay Livingston & Ray Evans )      (Silver bells, silver bells)   (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 ev'ry street corner you'll hear.      Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)   It's Christmas time in the city (in the city)   Ring-a-ling, 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 crunch   (See the kids bunch)   This is Santa's big scene   And above all this bustle   You'll hear.      Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)   It's Christmas time in the city (in the city)   Ring-a-ling, hear them ring   Soon it will be Christmas day      Soon it will be Christmas day...
