The Trolley Song

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 brake

Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings

When he smiled you 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

Plop, plop, plop went the wheels

Stomp, stomp went my heartstrings

As he started to go then I started to know

How it feels

When the universe rings

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

Plop, plop, plop went the wheels

Stomp, stomp 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
