Connie Stevens - The Trolley Song lyrics
Artist: Connie Stevens
album: Conchetta
With my high-starched collar
And my high-top shoes
And my hair pilled high upon my head
I went to lose a jolly
Hour on a 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
For the moment I saw him, I fell (Clang, clang, clang)
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
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
Stop, stop, stop cried 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 chugged 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
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop cried 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
And my high-top shoes
And my hair pilled high upon my head
I went to lose a jolly
Hour on a 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
For the moment I saw him, I fell (Clang, clang, clang)
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
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
Stop, stop, stop cried 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 chugged 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
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop cried 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
