The Trolley Song (From "Meet Me in St. Louis")

- Musical Creations Studio Musicians (Karaoke)

With my high-starched collar and my high-top 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 hats and took a seat

He said he hoped he hadn't 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

Flop, flop, flop, went the wheels

Stop, stop, stop, went my heartstrings

As he started to go then I started to know how it feels

When the universe reels

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 hats and took a seat

He said he hoped he hadn't 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

Flop, flop, flop, 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 stayed on with me

And it was grand just to stand

With his hand holding mine

To the end of the line
