A Christmas song composed by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans in 1950. It started out as “Tinkle Bells” because they didn’t know that Tinkle was a slang word for urination, but was changed as soon as they realized that.
[Chorus]
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
[Verse 1]
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks, dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
[Chorus]
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
[Verse 2]
Strings of streetlights, even stoplights 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 the bustle you hear
[Chorus]
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 was written by Jay Livingston & Ray Evans & Livingston & Evans.
