Lynn Anderson sings "Silver Bells". From her album 'Home For The Holidays' (1999). Composed by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans.
Lyric:
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
It's Christmas time 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
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.
