Silver Bells
A beautiful song to listen to around the Christmas season. A picture of Silver Bells chiming softly on a snowy winters day comes to mind. When I was young I remember my grandpa playing this song on his steel guitar. Such a pretty melody.
Silver bells, silver bells
Its Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day...
Silver bells, silver bells
Its Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day...
History of Silver Bells
Silver Bells a Christmas Carol
This Christmas song was a collaboration between composer Jay Livingston (1915-2001) and by songwriter Raymond Bernard Evans (1915-2007) Livingston composed the melody of the song while Evans wrote the lyrics. The song was first performed in a movie called 'The Lemon Drop Kid'. It was performed by Bob Hope and Marilyn Maxwell. Some years later the song was recorded by Bing Crosby and Carol Richards.
Lyrics to Silver Bells
The Song
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 streetlights, even stoplights
Blink of 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'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
