Lyrics The Surrey With the Fringe On Top - Chet Baker
When
I
take
you
out,
tonight,
with
me,
Honey,
here's
the
way
it's
goin'
to
be,
You
will
set
behind
a
team
of
snow
white
horses,
In
the
slickest
gig
you
ever
see!
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.
Nosey
pokes'll
peek
thru'
their
shutters
and
their
eyes
will
pop!
The
wheels
are
yeller,
the
upholstery's
brown,
The
dashboard's
genuine
leather,
With
isinglass
curtains
y'
can
roll
right
down,
In
case
there's
a
change
in
the
weather.
Two
bright
sidelight's
winkin'
and
blinkin',
Ain't
no
finer
rig
I'm
a-thinkin'
You
can
keep
your
rig
if
you're
thinkin'
'at
I'd
keep
to
swap
Fer
that
shiny,
little
surrey
with
the
fringe
on
the
top!
Did
you
say
the
fringe
was
made
of
silk
Wouldn't
have
no
other
kind
but
silk
Does
it
really
have
a
team
of
snow
white
horses
One's
like
snow,
the
others
more
like
milk
All
the
world'll
fly
in
a
flurry
When
I
take
you
out
in
the
surrey,
When
I
take
you
out
in
the
surrey
with
the
fringe
on
top!
When
we
hit
that
road,
hell
fer
leather,
Cats
and
dogs'll
dance
in
the
heather,
Birds
and
frogs'll
sing
all
together
and
the
toads
will
hop!
The
wind'll
whistle
as
we
rattle
along,
The
cows'll
moo
in
the
clover,
The
river
will
ripple
out
a
whispered
song,
And
whisper
it
over
and
over
Don't
you
wishty'd
go
on
forever?
Don't
you
wishty'd
go
on
forever?
Don't
you
wishty'd
go
on
forever
and
you'd
never
stop
In
that
shiny,
little
surrey
with
the
fringe
on
the
top!
I
can
see
the
stars
gettin'
blurry,
When
we
drive
back
home
in
the
surrey,
Drivin'
slowly
home
in
the
surrey
with
the
fringe
on
top!
I
can
feel
the
day
gettin'
older,
Feel
a
sleepy
head
on
my
shoulder,
Noddin',
droopin'
close
to
my
shoulder,
till
it
falls
kerplop!
The
sun
is
swimmin'
on
the
rim
of
a
hill,
The
moon
is
takin'
a
header,
And
jist
as
I'm
thinkin'
all
the
earth
is
still,
A
lark'll
wake
up
in
the
medder.
Hush,
you
bird,
my
baby's
a-sleepin'!
Maybe
got
a
dream
worth
a-keepin'
Whoa!
you
team,
and
jist
keep
a-creepin'
at
a
slow
clip
clop.
Don't
you
hurry
with
the
surrey
with
the
fringe
on
the
top!
