Lyrics

With her high starched collar and her high topped shoes
 And her hair piled high upon her head
 She went to find a jolly hour on the trolley
 And she found my heart instead
 With my light brown derby and my bright green tie
 I was quite the lonesomest 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 heart strings
 For the moment I saw her I fell
 Chug, chug, chug went the motor
 Thump, thump, thump went the brake
 Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings
 When she smiled I could feel the car shake
 I tipped my hat, I took a seat
 I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet
 "Say, what's your name?", I lost my breath
 She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death
 Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
 Pop, pop, pop went the wheels
 Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
 As she started to go then I started to know how it feels
 When the universe reels
 I tipped my hat, I took a seat
 I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet
 I asked her name, then lost my breath
 She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death
 Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
 Pop, pop, pop went the wheels
 Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
 As she started to leave I took hold of her sleeve with my hand
 And as if it were planned
 She stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand
 With her hand holding mine to the end of the line
 End of the line
 The end of the line
 Somewhere over the rainbow
 Way up high there's a land I heard of once in a lullaby
 Somewhere over the rainbow
 Skies are blue
 And the dreams that you dare to dream
 Really do come true
 Someday I'll wish upon a star
 And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
 Where troubles melt like lemon drops
 Away above the chimney tops
 That's where you'll find me Somewhere over the rainbow
 Bluebirds fly
 Birds fly over the rainbow
 Why then oh why can't I?
 If happy little bluebirds fly
 Beyond the rainbow why oh why can't I?
