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 |
