Surrey With The Fringe On Top |
When I take you out tonight with me |
Honey, here’s the way it’s gonna be |
You will sit behind a team of snow-white horses in the slickest gig you’ll ever |
see |
Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry |
When I take you out in the surrey |
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top |
Watch that fringe and see how it flutters |
When I drive them high steppin' strutters |
Nosy folks will peep through the shutters and their eyes will pop |
Those wheels are yellow, the upholstery’s brown, the dashboard’s genuine leather |
With nice bright curtains that can roll right down in case there’s a change in |
the weather |
Two bright side lights winking and blinkin |
Ain’t no finer rig I’m a-thinking |
You can keep your rig if you’re thinking that I care to swap |
For that shiny little surrey with the fringe on the top |
(Would you say the fringe was made of silk?) Wouldn’t have no other kind but |
silk |
(Has it really got a team of snow-white horses?) |
One’s like snow, the others more like milk (so you can tell `em apart) |
All the world would fly in a flurry |
When I take you out in the surrey |
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top |
When we hit that road hell for leather |
Cats and dogs all dance in the heather |
Birds and frogs will sing all together and the toads will hop |
The wind will whistle as we rattle along, the cows will moo in the clover |
The river will ripple out a whispered song, and whisper it over and over |
Don’t you wish you’d go on forever |
Don’t wish you’d go on forever |
Don’t you wish you’d go on forever and would never stop |
In that shiny little surrey with fringe on the top? |
