Lyrics The Trolley Song - Connie Stevens

With my high-starched collar
And my high-top shoes
And my hair pilled high upon my head

I went to loose a jolly
Hour on a 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
Than 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 hearstrings
When he smiled I could feel the car shake

He tipped his hat
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
Clop, clop, clop 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

(The day was bright, the air was sweet
The smell of honeysuckle chugged you off your feet
You tried to sing, but couldn′t squeak
In fact, you loved him so you couldn't even speak)

Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Clop, clop, clop 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 where planned
He stayed on with me

And it was grand just to stand
With his hand holding mine
To the end of the line
