	作曲 : Carpenter, Jennings
	作词 : CARPENTER, MARY
	Well I walked to town in the pouring rain
	Paid my fare and
	I rode that train
	To the station under the avenue
	Hit the air at the stroke of noon
	At the cross streets where
	I staked my claim
	I played in tune with the winter rain
	Collecting dimes and dollar bills
	While the noisy traffic played the fills
	And it’s Christmas time in the city
	When the air is filled with cheer
	And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year
	Well the vendors huddled and the taxis honked
	As I played for change beneath the neon clock
	Was dressed up looking like a
	Christmas tree
	Blinking down on that busy street
	When the crowd thinned out and the rain had quit
	And my fingers felt cold and stiff
	I took their money and
	I closed my case
	And I headed back towards home again
	And it’s Christmas time in the city
	When the air is filled with cheer
	And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year
	As I walked back to the subway stairs
	I had twenty eight dollars in change for fare
	There was an old bag lady with an outstretched hand
	And a small
	Salvation
	Army bandPlaying
	Angels We
	Have Heard on
	HighThe First
	Noel and O
	Holy Night
	I folded up one dollar bill
	And I tucked it down into the till
	And it’s Christmas time in the city
	When the air is filled with cheer
	And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year
	And it’s Christmas time in the city
	When the air is filled with cheer
	And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year
	And it’s Christmas time in the city
