The Trolley Song - Jo Stafford

作曲：Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin

With my highstarched collar and my

hightop 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 break

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 had

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 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

To the end of the line

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

To the end of the line
