歌詞
[Verse 1]
With my high starched collar
And my high top shoes
And my hair piled high upon my head
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Chug, chug, chug went the motor
Bump, bump, bump went the brake
Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings
When he smiled I could feel the car shake
[Verse 5]
Clang, clang, clang
He tipped his hat and took a seat
He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet
[Verse 6]
He asked my name
I held my breath
I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death
[Verse 7]
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Plop, plop, plop when 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
[Verse 8]
The day was bright
The air was sweet
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet
[Verse 9]
You tried to sing
But couldn't squeak
In fact, you loved him so you couldn't even speak
[Verse 10]
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings
[Verse 11]
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
Till the end of the line
[Verse 12]
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
Zing, zing, zing went my heart
Ahh, vroom
