City sidewalks, busy sidewalks

Dressed in holiday style

Blink a bright red and green

       E7/B          E7              A         (F#m)
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures

         A                    A/E
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch

        D           Bm7
This is Santa's big day

      E7            E7/B        A    (F#m)
And, above all this bustle, you hear

Soon it will be Christmas Day
