The Trolley Song |
With my high-starched collar and my high-top shoes |
And my hair piled high upon my head |
I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley and lost my heart instead |
With his light brown derby and his bright green tie |
He was quite the handsomest of men |
I started to yen so I counted to ten |
Then I counted to ten again |
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley |
Ding, ding, ding went the bell |
Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings |
From the moment I saw him I fell |
Chug, chug, chug went the motor |
Bump, bump, bump went the break |
Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings |
When he smiled I could feel the car shake |
He tipped his hat and took a seat |
He said he hoped he hadn’t stepped upon my feet |
He asked my name, I held my breath |
I couldn’t speak because he scared me half to death |
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer |
Flop, flop, flop went the wheels |
Stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings |
As he started to go then I started to know |
How it feels |
When the Universe reels |
The day was bright, the air was sweet |
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet |
You tried to sing but couldn’t squeak |
In fact you loved him so you couldn’t even speak |
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer |
Flop, flop, flop went the wheels |
Stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings |
As he started to leave |
I took hold of his sleeve with my hand |
And as if it were planned |
He stayed on with me And it was grand just to stand |
With his hand holding mine |
To the end of the line |
