The Trolley Song

Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
 Ding, ding, ding went the bell
 Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings
 As we started for Huntington Dell
 Chug, chug, chug went the motor
 Bump, bump, bump went the brakes
 Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings
 As we glided by Huntington Lake
 The day was bright, the air was sweet
 The smell of honeysuckle charmed me off my feet
 I tried to sing but couldn't squeak
 In fact, I felt so good I couldn't even speak
 Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
 Time to all to disembark
 Time to fall went my heartstrings
 As we got off at Huntington Park
 As we got off at Huntington Park
 ♪
 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
 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
 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 I could feel the car shake
 (Clang, clang, clang)
 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
 Chug, chug, chug went the motor
 Plop, plop, plop went 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
 The day was bright
 The air was sweet
 The smell of honeysuckle
 Charmed 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 went my heartstrings
 As he started to leave
 I took hold of his sleeve
 With my hand
 And as if it were planned
 He stay on with me
 And it was grand just to stand
 With his hand holding mine
 Till the end of the line
 Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
 Zing, zing, zing went my heart
