Hugh Martin - The Trolley Song lyrics

Sue: With my high starched collar and my high topped shoes And my hair piled high upon my head I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley And lost my heart instead Doris: With his light brown derby and his bright green tie He was quite the handsomest of men I started to yen Sue: So I counted to ten Doris and Sue: Then I counted to ten again Doris: Clang, clang, clang went the trolley Sue: Ding, ding, ding went the bell Doris: Zing, zing, zing went my heart strings Doris and Sue: From the moment I saw him I fell Sue: Chug, chug, chug went the motor Doris: Bump, bump, bump went the brake Doris and Sue: Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings When he smiled I could feel the car shake Doris: He tipped his hat and took a seat Doris and Sue: He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet Sue: He asked my name, I held my breath Doris and Sue: I couldn't speak because he scared me half to d**h Doris: Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer Plop, plop, plop went the wheels Doris with Sue: Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings As he started to go then I started to know how it feels When the universe reels Band Members: The day was bright, the air was sweet The smell of honeys**le charmed you off your feet You tried to sing but couldn't squeak In fact, you loved him so you couldn't even speak Doris and Sue: 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 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 Band Members: Clang, clang, clang went the trolley Doris and Sue: Zing, zing, zing, zing went my heart!
