The Surrey With The Fringe On Top - Vikki Carr

作曲：Richard Rodgers/Oscar Hammerstein II

Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry

When I take you out in the surrey

When I take you out in the surrey

With the fringe on top

Watch that fringe and see how it flutters

When I drive them high steppin' strutters

Nosey pokes'll peek thru' their shutters

And their eyes will pop

The wheels are yeller the upholstery's brown

The dashboard's genuine leather

With isinglass curtains you can roll right down

In case there's a change in the weather

Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin'

Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin'

You can keep your rig

If you're thinkin' at I'd keer to swap

Fer that shiny little surrey

With the fringe on the top

The wind'll whistle as we rattle along

The cows'll moo in the clover

The river will ripple out a whispered song

And whisper it over and over

My baby's a-sleepin'

Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin'

Whoa you team and jist keep a-creepin'

At a slow clip clop

Don't you hurry with the surrey

I won't work my shiny surrey

When I take you out in the surrey

With the fringe on the top
