Me with my high starched collar and my high-top shoes Hair piled high upon my head I went to lose a jolly hour on a trolley Lost my heart instead In his light brown derby And his bright red tie He was quite the handsomest of men Started to yen I counted to ten Started again and then "Clang, clang, clang" went the trolley "Ding, dong, ding, dong" went the bell "Zing" went my heartstrings The moment I saw him I fell "Chug, chug" went the motor "Bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump" went the brake "Thump!" went my heartbeat When he smiled I could feel the car shake He tipped his hat Took a seat And then he said "Did I step on your feet, honey?" He asked my name, I held my breath I couldn't speak because He scared me to death "Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz" went the buzzer "Plop, plop, plop" went the wheels "Stop, stop, stop" went my heart He started to leave I took hold of his sleeve With my hand And as if it were planned He stayed on with me And it was grand Just to stand with his hand holding mine We held hands To the end of the line Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding We held hands Ding To the end of the line, to the end of the line To the end of the line We held hands Ding, dong
