Jo Stafford - The Trolley Song lyrics
Your rating:
With my high starched collar and my high topped Shoes And my hair piled high upon my head She went to find the jolly hour on the trolley And lost her heart instead With his light brown derby and his bright green tie He was quite the handsomest of men She started to yen so she counted to ten Then she counted to ten again Clang, clang, clang went the trolley Ding, ding, ding, ding went the bell Zing, zing, zing went my heart strings For the moment I saw him I fell Chug, chug, chug went the motor Bump, bump, bump went the brake Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings When he smiled, I could feel the car shake He tipped his had and took a seat 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 Plop, plop, plop went the wheels Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand And as if it where planned, he stayed on with me And it was grand just to stand with his hand holding mine To the end of the line Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer Plop, plop, plop went the wheels Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand And as if it where planned, he stayed on with me And it was grand just to stand with his hand holding mine To the end of the line
