Silver Bells
~ 1953 recorded
— performed by
the
Fontane Sisters
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 . . .
Ring-a-ling . . .
Ring-a-ling . . .
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 of
bright red an' 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!
Silver bells . . .
ring-a-ling!
