The Hi-Lo's

The Hi-Lo's were an a cappella quartet formed in 1953. The group's name is reportedly a reference to their extreme vocal and physical ranges (Bob Strasen and Bob Morse were tall, Gene Puerling and Clark Burroughs were short). more »

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
