Bing Crosby/Dinah Washington (See Notes) Written by: Jay Livingston/Ray Evans 1951 [Silver bells, silver bells] It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling [ring-a-ling], Hear them ring [ting-a-ling] 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] 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 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 rush This is Santa's big day And above all this bustle you'll hear Silver bells] the corner Santa Claus, [Silver bells], it's busy now because It's Christmas time in the city Ring-a-ling, [it fills the winter air] Hear them ring (you'll hear it everywhere] Soon it will be Christmas day. City sidewalks, [silver bells] busy sidewalks, [Silver bells] Dressed in holiday style In the air [It's Christmas time in the city] there's a feeling of Christmas Children laughing, [ring-a-ling] People passing, [Hear them ring] Meeting smile after smile Very soon it will be Christmas day.
