The Surrey With The Fringe On Top

The Surrey With The Fringe On Top - Howard Keel/Betty Hutton

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

Nosy folks will peep through the shutters

And their eyes will pop

Those wheels are yellow

The upholstery's brown

Dashboard's genuine leather

With in-sin glass curtains

That can roll right down case

There's a change in the weather

Two bright side lights winking and blinkin'

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

You can keep your rig

If you're thinking that I care to swap

For that shiny little surrey

With the fringe on the top
