[00:00.00]The Trolley Song - Ed Ames
[00:06.63]With high starched collar
[00:08.17]And high top shoes
[00:09.92]And hair piled high upon head
[00:12.57]
[00:13.56]I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley
[00:16.36]And lost my heart instead
[00:19.71]With his light brown
[00:20.81]Derby and his bright green tie
[00:22.94]He was quite the handsomest of men
[00:25.37]
[00:26.23]I started to yen so I counted to ten
[00:29.27]Then I counted to ten again
[00:32.02]
[00:37.92]Clang clang clang went the trolley
[00:40.32]
[00:41.08]Ding ding ding went the bell
[00:43.45]
[00:44.19]Zing zing zing went my heartstrings
[00:47.08]From the moment I saw him I fell
[00:50.50]
[00:52.42]Chug chug chug went the motor
[00:54.84]
[00:55.57]Bump bump bump went the break
[00:57.74]
[00:58.66]Thump thump thump went my heartstrings
[01:01.50]When he smiled I could feel the car shake
[01:03.88]
[01:06.28]He tipped his hat and took a seat
[01:08.81]
[01:09.49]He said he hoped he hadn stepped upon her feet
[01:12.00]
[01:12.71]"Say what's your name " I lost my breath
[01:15.98]She looked so lovely that
[01:17.04]It scared me half to death
[01:18.46]
[01:19.14]Oh buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer
[01:22.27]
[01:23.25]Pop pop pop went the wheels
[01:25.30]
[01:26.31]Stop stop stop went my heart strings
[01:28.70]
[01:29.22]As she started to go then I started
[01:31.48]To know how it feels
[01:33.93]
[01:34.82]When the universe reels
[01:38.08]
[01:42.22]I tipped my hat I took a seat
[01:44.75]
[01:45.47]I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet
[01:47.99]
[01:48.77]I asked her name then lost my breath
[01:51.33]
[01:52.04]She looked so lovely
[01:52.98]That it scared me half to death
[01:54.74]
[01:55.43]Oh buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer
[01:58.28]
[01:59.30]Pop pop pop went the wheels
[02:01.35]
[02:02.44]Stop stop stop went my heart strings
[02:05.40]As she started to leave I took
[02:07.30]Hold of her sleeve with my hand
[02:10.11]
[02:10.87]And as if it were planned
[02:12.98]
[02:14.07]She stayed on with me and
[02:15.78]It was grand just to stand
[02:17.64]With her hand holding mine
[02:19.86]
[02:20.77]To the end of the line
[02:23.46]
[02:24.37]End of the line
[02:27.66]The end of the line
