Ed Ames - The Trolley Song lyrics

The Trolley Song
Ed Ames
Words and Music by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blake
sung by Judy Garland in the movie "Meet Me In St. Louis" (with a gender switch)

With her high starched collar and her high topped shoes
And her hair piled high upon her head
She went to find a jolly hour on the trolley
And she found my heart instead

With my light brown derby and my bright green tie
I was quite the lonesomest 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 heart strings
For the moment I saw her I fell

Chug, chug, chug went the motor
Thump, thump, thump went the brake
Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings
When she smiled I could feel the car shake

I tipped my hat, I took a seat
I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feetEd Ames - The Trolley Song - http://motolyrics.com/ed-ames/the-trolley-song-lyrics.html
"Say, what's your name?", I lost my breath
She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death

Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Pop, pop, pop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
As she started to go then I started to know how it feels
When the universe reels

I tipped my hat, I took a seat
I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet
I asked her name, then lost my breath
She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death

Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Pop, pop, pop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
As she started to leave I took hold of her sleeve with my hand
And as if it were planned
She stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand
With her hand holding mine to the end of the line

End of the line
The end of the line
