John Prine - Silver Bells lyrics

City Sidewalks, busy sidewalks

Dressed in holiday style

In the air there is a feeling of Christmas

Children laughing, people passing

Greeting 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 Stop Lights

Blink a bright red and green

As the shoppers rush home with their treasures

Here the snow crunch, see the kids bunch

It Santa's big day

And above all the hustle 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.

Silver Bells, Silver Bells

It's Christmas time in the city

Ring-a-ling hear them ring

Soon it will be Christmas Day.

Soon it will be Christmas Day.

Soon it will be Christmas Day.
